That the Parliament congratulates the Govan Pantry, run by Govan HELP, on winning the Community Led Regeneration Award at the SURF Awards 2023; recognises that this is the 25th annual SURF Award programme, which highlights, celebrates and shares the achievements of initiatives that address physical, social and economic challenges in communities across Scotland; acknowledges that the ceremony took place on 7 December 2023 in Glasgow’s Voco Grand Central Hotel in front of over 270 guests; understands that, after SURF’s panel of 15 independent judges carefully assessed all the nominees, it awarded one of the five awards to the Govan Pantry for the work that it does to support people who are experiencing food poverty, while also providing training, volunteering and employability opportunities; celebrates the support that Govan HELP continues to provide to the community, and wishes the organisation all the best for the future.
