Lodged by Michelle Thomson Standard Motion 19 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament welcomes the £970 awarded from Asda Foundation grants in the latest tranche of funding towards causes close to the local community, with the help of local community champions in the Grangemouth and Stenhousemuir stores; understands that the grants on offer through the Asda Foundation are one of the methods that Asda uses to demonstrate its commitment to the communities around its stores; notes that the criteria for the grants means that they are open to groups helping communities to tackle the cost of living crisis, and groups supporting children and young people; understands that Bo'ness Storehouse Foodbank SCIO was awarded £470 and that Warriors in the Community was awarded £500 to support what it sees as its important work; welcomes this funding from the Asda Foundation to support Bo'ness Storehouse Foodbank SCIO and Warriors in the Community, and wishes both groups well as they continue to positively impact their communities.
