Lady J and the Feel Good Project
The motion
That the Parliament celebrates the work of Jill Lauder, of Lady J’s Unisex Hair Salon in Grangemouth, in bringing about the Feel Good Project, an award-winning community initiative held on the first Monday of each month, where people with cancer can enjoy a cup of tea, a chat and some beauty treatments; understands that Jill was awarded the Volunteer of the Year award by CVS Falkirk for the project, which she started four years ago after losing two good friends to cancer; notes that the project brings people together from the NHS, Macmillan Cancer Support, as well as beauticians, beauty therapists and make-up consultants from businesses in Grangemouth; considers that the Feel Good Project has a significant positive impact on people living with cancer who visit the salon through providing a supportive and welcoming atmosphere that allows people to share their experiences and support each other in a space where they can relax for an afternoon; encourages other people and communities across Scotland and the UK to follow Jill’s lead with projects such as this; celebrates Jill and her team of volunteers at the Feel Good Project, and wishes all involved every success going forward.
