The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Longniddry and District Rotary Club on organising a charity curling bonspiel at Curl Edinburgh, in Murrayfield, which raised £3,000 for Carers of East Lothian; recognises that 10 rinks from local curling clubs and Rotarians participated in an afternoon of friendly but competitive play, with Longniddry and District Rotary’s rink winning the Longniddry Quaich; acknowledges the generous support of sponsors, players and club members whose contributions made the event possible; notes that representatives of CoEL, including the chief executive and volunteer and training co-ordinator, attended a cheque presentation on 22 January 2026 to celebrate the success of the fundraiser; understands that CoEL provides vital support for unpaid carers across East Lothian, offering guidance, training and practical assistance to those caring for family members or friends, and commends all involved in the event for raising awareness of the essential role unpaid carers play in communities, and for helping to fund the charity’s continuing work.
