The motion

That the Parliament congratulates the People’s Postcode Lottery (PPL) on having raised over £2 million for Scottish charities, which was marked by a visit to the new Glen Mile Mountain Bike Trail in Cumbernauld, which is managed by the Scottish Wildlife Trust; believes that this sum has made a real difference to PPL’s charity partners, Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centres, Missing People, Children 1st and the Scottish Wildlife Trust, which have benefited from unrestricted financial support for their good causes, and welcomes the creation of the People’s Postcode Trust, which will create new opportunities for organisations to apply for smaller sums that can make a real difference to their communities.
