Motion text
That this House congratulates Friends of Scottish Settlers (FOSS) for receiving £25,000 in funding from the People’s Postcode Trust, a grant-giving charity funded entirely by players of the People’s Postcode Lottery, and £120,000 from the National Lottery Community Fund, which supports positive change across the UK; recognises the important work that FOSS carries out across Falkirk District to support New Scots, including refugees and asylum seekers, in building new lives and contributing to their local communities; notes that this funding will support the organisation’s continued efforts to foster integration, inclusion, community participation and mitigating the worst effects of the long-term ineffectiveness of the asylum system; and wishes all those involved continued success in their invaluable work.
