TELEGRAPH/ALDI SCHOOL CHAMPION AWARD WINNER, CORMACK O'HARA

Early day motion 367, tabled 20 July 2016 by Kirsten Oswald (Scottish National Party). Signed by 35 members.

That this House congratulates 15 year old Cormack O'Hara of Newton Mearns on his outstanding achievement in winning a Telegraph/Aldi School Champion Award; notes that Cormack, who attends Williamwood High School, is autistic, and has epilepsy and severe anxiety, which made transitioning to high school two years ago very challenging; applauds Cormack's sheer determination in dealing with these challenges by focusing on running; further notes that he recently became Scottish under-17 1,500 metres champion in the Paralympic T20 category; appreciates Cormack's commitment to his sport, his health and his well-being, as recognised by the judges of this prestigious award; and wishes him every continued success in running and beyond as he aims for Tokyo 2020.
