The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Megan’s Space, the North Ayrshire charity founded in 2019 in memory of Megan Copeland, on opening its first dedicated premises on Ballot Road, Irvine; recognises the charity’s mission to support young people up to the age of 25 through counselling, crisis support and wellbeing initiatives; welcomes the opening of The Haven, a safe space for young people in crisis, alongside counselling rooms and a boardroom for group activities and training; acknowledges the tireless efforts of the founders, Jenny and Rob Copeland, who channelled a personal tragedy into creating a charity that has supported many across the community; notes that Megan’s Space now employs 20 professional practitioners and works in schools and wider community settings, and commends the generosity of local donors, businesses and volunteers whose support made this milestone possible.
