The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Shetland business, Glansin Glass, for receiving four stars from VisitScotland for its visitor centre; understands that Glansin Glass, in Unst, was assessed anonymously on its glass-making sessions, shop and overall visitor experience; further understands that the visitor centre opened in May 2021 following three years of development, and offers glass-making sessions for visitors of all ages; congratulates glass artist, Cheryl Jamieson, of Glansin Glass, for achieving what it understands is a long-standing ambition of hers to have a purpose-built visitor centre; understands that Ms Jamieson’s glassware designs are inspired by the landscape of Shetland; considers that the four star award from VisitScotland shows a positive recognition of the work of the island-based craft business, and wishes all at Glansin Glass well.
