That this House congratulates the organisers of the Orkney Tractor Run held in Kirkwall on 29 December 2022; notes that a total of 179 tractors from family farms across the county were included in the event, which attracted wide attendance from the community; understands that over £28,000 was raised for charity through generous donations, with proceeds to be shared between mental health charity Orkney Blide Trust and the Orkney Heart Support Group; believes that tractor runs play an important role in bringing agricultural communities together and supporting local charities; and wishes the Orkney Agricultural Society and all participants well in anticipation of next winter’s event.
