- Motion reference: S5M-22448
That the Parliament congratulates the Edinburgh School Uniform Bank on delivering over 400 packs since reopening in recent weeks; recognises that the need for a uniform is very real and that the Bank is playing a crucial role in supporting people facing poverty; notes that it is still getting requests for assistance and greatly appreciates any donations; applauds its innovation in switching to allowing donations to be made online, as traditional drop-off points remain closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and encourages people to find out more about it by visiting edinburghuniform.org.
