Food for Thought, Motherwell

Lodged by Clare Adamson (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 16 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament recognises what it sees as the outstanding commitment of the volunteers at Food for Thought, Motherwell; understands that the charity, which is based at the Ebenezer Church in Motherwell, distributes fresh food every Monday to families and individuals in need who live in and around Motherwell; further understands that the charity provides companionship, whilst signposting to other organisations to help ensure that they are receiving all the financial and emotional support available; believes that many larders and foodbanks across Scotland have seen a rise in demand over the last few months, with many, it understands, struggling to maintain stocks during the current cost of living crisis; thanks all the organisations involved that are providing support to the residents of Motherwell and surrounding area, and wishes them all the best for the future.
