Buckie Rovers Mental Health Support

Lodged by Karen Adam (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 24 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament commends Buckie Rovers Football Club for organising a 24-hour sponsored cycle to raise funds for the local mental health charity, Feeling Blue; recognises the efforts of players, Ross Fiske and Rhys Thomson, in leading the initiative, and the wider team’s commitment to promoting mental health awareness through sport and solidarity; acknowledges what it sees as the vital support of Motion Gym, Buckie, for hosting the event and backing the team throughout the challenge; applauds Feeling Blue for what it sees as its invaluable work in providing counselling and support to those facing mental health struggles, following its founding by Pauline and Allen Thain in memory of their son, Jody, and affirms the importance of initiatives like this in breaking stigma, encouraging conversation, and reinforcing the message that it’s OK not to be OK.
