The motion

That the Parliament applauds the success of a partnership between the Ayrshire charity, Centrestage Community, and the local businesses, Buzzworks Holdings and Braehead Foods, which worked together to produce and distribute 26,885 cooked meals to 4,810 people across Ayrshire between 1 April and 31 May 2020; understands that the partnership has involved chefs and front of house staff from Buzzworks, who operate several restaurants across Ayrshire, using Centrestage’s kitchen facilities in Dundonald to produce meals from food supplied by Braehead Foods and other local suppliers before delivering them across the area; considers that, were it not for the contributions of Buzzworks, Braehead Foods and other local businesses, Centrestage might not have been able to meet demand; recognises the vital contribution that businesses and third sector organisations across Scotland have played in supporting people during the COVID-19 pandemic; commends the efforts of all those involved in this partnership, and thanks them for their contribution in supporting the local community.
