That the Parliament congratulates Jenni Murray on being named Project Coordinator of the Year at the Paths for All Volunteer Awards 2022, held in the Scottish Parliament; understands that Jenni was recognised for her passion, drive and support, which has meant that the Inverclyde Bothy and its volunteers have had a huge impact in the community by engaging people in local Health Walks; believes that after volunteering for six months as a Walk Leader with Inverclyde Bothy, which is managed by Cycling UK, Jenni’s passion for walking and the outdoors encouraged her to make a career change and in 2019 she secured the role as Health Walk Coordinator with the group; considers that Jenni’s work has seen the bothy volunteer network grow to 18 volunteers, who are supporting 460 individuals to make positive lifestyle choices and changes; thanks Jenni for her commitment to the Inverclyde Bothy project, and wishes her and the group all the best for the future.
