The motion

That the Parliament congratulates the Captain David Seath Memorial Fund in Dunfermline on reaching what it sees as a milestone 10 years of fundraising in support of veterans and their families across Scotland through Help for Heroes; notes that the fund was established by Gary Seath following the tragic death of his brother, Captain David Seath of 29 Commando Regiment Royal Artillery, who served with distinction in Afghanistan and the Middle East and died while running the 2016 London Marathon in support of Help for Heroes; recognises that the fund has brought together family, friends, serving personnel, veterans and communities across Scotland, the UK and beyond through annual 5K events, golf days, quizzes, yoga sessions and a range of challenges, community and corporate fundraising activities; notes that over £360,000 has been raised to date; understands that this has helped provide life-changing support to hundreds of veterans; commends the Seath family for embodying the commando ethos through resilience, fortitude and selfless commitment in establishing this legacy, and wishes the fund continued success in the years ahead.
