Big Disability Group Changes Name to Improving Lives

Lodged by Marie McNair (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 20 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament recognises Improving Lives, which has changed its name from Big Disability Group; notes that Improving Lives' premises, existing services and logo will remain the same in order to stay recognisable to the community; understands that the charity continues to help thousands of people every year and runs several events and classes throughout the year, from focus groups and arts and craft classes to an annual open day; congratulates founder, Kevin Crawford, his five employees and the many volunteers at Improving Lives, and wishes them all the best as they continue to grow and expand their remit of helping those living with disabilities or long-term conditions, their families and carers.
