That the Parliament congratulates the project, Govan Heritage: Remarkable Past, Bright Future, on receiving a National Lottery Heritage Fund delivery award of £1,490,860, which will support heritage-led regeneration; notes that this significant investment will fund essential repairs to the historic Pump House as part of the wider redevelopment of the Govan Graving Docks, helping to create a new community-owned public space in partnership with Glasgow City Council; acknowledges that the funding will also enable the redevelopment of the Fairfield Rowan annexe of the Fairfield Shipyard, as well as urgent repairs to pre-1919 tenements; recognises that the project includes key environmental improvements to important public spaces, enhancing the day-to-day experience of residents and visitors; understands that this latest award builds on substantial past support by the Heritage Fund for Govan’s heritage, including investment in Govan Cross, the Aitken Memorial Fountain, Govan Old Church and the Govan Stones, and pays tribute to all those involved in preserving, enhancing and celebrating Govan’s remarkable past, while building a bright and sustainable future for the community.
