The motion

That the Parliament congratulates the Kinlochard community on the successful community buyout of The Field in Kinlochard, Stirlingshire; recognises the significant efforts of local volunteers and the Kinlochard Community Residents Association in securing more than £400,000 in funding following a two-year-long campaign; understands that the project aims to protect an important local green space and biodiversity-rich environment whilst supporting community regeneration and resilience; understands that there are plans to improve access and pathways, establish community food-growing spaces, support outdoor education opportunities and create opportunities for local businesses; acknowledges concerns regarding the loss of local services in Kinlochard that would have occurred without this buyout, and commends all those involved for their commitment to safeguarding the long-term future, environmental stewardship and community wellbeing of Kinlochard for generations to come.
