That the Parliament congratulates the Loch Ken Trust on securing vital funding from the Holywood Trust to continue the Loch Ken Trust Youth Water Safety Awareness Programme in 2024; understands that the programme, which recently featured in the Water Safety Scotland publication, Experiential Learning Guidance, aims to show people how to support water-based activities and sessions safely; further understands that the programme, which takes place at the Galloway Activity Centre, offers free sessions and teaches young people the vital skills required to stay safe on and around water and is recognised as an example of best practice for youth water safety; thanks the Holywood Trust, the Loch Ken Trust and the Galloway Activity Centre for their collaborative work to secure this vitally important programme for a second year, and wishes all involved, including all future programme participants, all the very best.
