Getting Better Together
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Getting Better Together on its 10th anniversary; applauds the role that the project has played in empowering people throughout North Lanarkshire to improve their health and quality of life; considers that Getting Better Together has marked this year with a number of notable achievements, including making over 2.5 million portions of fruit and vegetables available to the community of Shotts and throughout North Lanarkshire, supplying over 5,000 portions of fruit and vegetables to 76 parent and toddler groups every week between January and March 2009, opening new food co-ops at Airdrie and Wishaw and continuing to work with established co-ops in Allanton, Salsburgh, Eastfield and in many primary schools in the greater Shotts area; pays tribute to the hard work and commitment of all the staff and volunteers who run these services, and hopes that Getting Better Together continues to go from strength to strength in the coming year.
