The motion

That the Parliament commends the efforts of 17-year-old Calum Hamilton, from Falkirk, who, following the competition of his sixth year at Falkirk High School, will travel to Nepal with Rayleigh International on a 10-week volunteering trip; understands that, in October 2022, Calum will be joining other volunteers aged 17 to 24 in working with local communities on water sanitation and hygiene programmes to increase access to safe water and improve access to safe sanitation and hygiene facilities; further understands that the group will also take part in a lengthy hike through some of the must rural areas of Nepal, and congratulates Calum on recently tackling the 22.6-mile Glasgow Kiltwalk to help with his fundraising for the trip.
