Alford Couple Raises £32,000 for the Archie Foundation

Lodged by Alexander Burnett (Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party) Standard Motion 30 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Davie and Ange Hill of Alford for fundraising £32,000 for the Archie Foundation; understands that much of this amount was raised during Davie’s hike up Island Peak, a Himalayan Mountain that is just a few kilometres from Mount Everest; acknowledges that Davie’s 10-day hike through the thin-air and mountain paths was inspired by a family member who was born prematurely and has endured several medical challenges; commends Davie and Ange Hill for using this demanding hike as an opportunity to raise money for families in a similar situation; applauds the Hill family members for what it sees as their admirable resilience and compassion in the face of medical challenges, and wishes them well in their future fundraising efforts.
