The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Jordan Currie on being awarded the title of Newmains Citizen of the Year for 2022 at the Newmains Gala Day; understands that Jordan was awarded the title for his hard work and dedication to the community during the COVID-19 pandemic; notes that throughout lockdown, Jordan prepared and delivered meals to vulnerable and older residents in Newmains after seeing his neighbours struggle during the difficult periods in 2020; applauds the community in Newmains for getting behind Jordan in his endeavours, and raising what it sees as an impressive £1,365 to support Jordan in purchasing ingredients and food supplies to prepare these meals, in turn contributing to the community spirit; understands that, in addition, Jordan has fundraised for community mental health charity, Chris’ House, and helps homeless people in his area by providing sleeping bags and food; commends Jordan for his hard work, thanks him for her dedication and commitment to serve his community through volunteer work, and wishes him all the best for the future.
