PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
Drylaw Telford Community Association (23 July 2024)

Motion Details

That this House congratulates the Drylaw Telford Community Association on their award of £20,000 from the National Lottery Awards for All Scotland; understands the funding will be used to support the work of their 50 years+ Link Worker; notes that this is designed to connect people over the age of 50 across northern and western Edinburgh to tackle persistent loneliness; commends their focus on those at high risk of being socially isolated, which disproportionately affects older people; and wishes the Community Association success with their new initiative.
