That the Parliament congratulates Lente Robinson, aged 11, Heather Robinson, aged eight, and Freya and Olly Baraclough, both aged 10, and their mums, Philine van der Heide and Kristina High, on challenging themselves to cycle from Farr to Holyrood in order to highlight the need for change in the way people live, in order to help preserve the future of the planet, and to encourage a move away from car travel; praises them all for their efforts, and for raising over £1,300 for Trees for Life, a Scottish charity supporting wild forests in Scotland; commits to following the lead of these children, and supports the calls to promote sustainable travel and improve active travel infrastructure.
