That the Parliament commends Billington’s of Lenzie for being crowned the Scottish winner of the Convenience Stores UK Local Legends competition; understands that Billington’s was the subject of a number of nominations and was selected by the contest judges based on the high praise it received for efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic; notes that the team at Billington’s prepared and delivered soup and care packages to people who were shielding or self-isolating, and diversified its stock to cater to the needs of the local community, and thanks Billington’s management and staff for their incredible efforts during the pandemic and for truly being a "local legend" in the community.
