The motion
That this House congratulates Caitlyn Payne on the first birthday of The Bookmonger, the bookshop, wine and cheese bar she opened on New Kirk Road at Bearsden Cross; notes that Caitlyn was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer at the age of 39 and received treatment at NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde's Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre; recognises that this experience led her to build a business that gives back, including a Book of the Month initiative donating 100% of proceeds to Beatson Cancer Charity; commends her fundraising activities in support of the charity, including prize draws and themed sales during Breast Cancer Awareness Month; and thanks Caitlyn for her contribution to the Bearsden high street and to cancer care in Glasgow.
