The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Lynn Young, a community midwife in Stranraer, who has been nominated in the prestigious annual Scottish Health Awards 2023 in recognition of her outstanding contribution in the health sector; understands that Lynn has worked in the role for 23 years; notes that she was nominated by a family member whom she looked after during a bereavement in pregnancy, and then again during a further pregnancy with the happy outcome of a healthy baby boy; understands that Lynn enjoys working with local families and getting to know them over the years by working alongside an incredible team of midwives, obstetricians, maternity care assistants and support staff, and wishes Lynn every success in the future, while hoping for a favourable result at the awards ceremony that will take place in Edinburgh on 2 November 2023.
