Cathie and Denis Curran MBE

Early day motion 113, tabled 26 May 2021 by Lisa Cameron (Scottish National Party). Signed by 8 members.

That this house pays tribute to Denis Curran MBE and his wife Cathie after they recently announced their retirement from the Loaves and Fishes foodbank in East Kilbride after nearly 30 years of service to the most vulnerable and in need in the local East Kilbride community; draws particular attention to their life’s work in providing support and care for those who had nowhere else to turn and their tireless commitment to speaking truth to power on behalf of those who are voiceless; thanks all the volunteers and members of the local community who give their time and resources to support Loaves and Fishes; and calls on the Government to treat those who currently rely on foodbanks across the UK with the dignity and humanity they deserve and to ensure that future generations grow up in a place where the need for foodbanks no longer exists.
