Sharing Stories project

Motion Text

That this House commends pupils of Lasswade High School for their Sharing Stories project; understands that, as part of this project, each week a booklet and audio recording of students’ creative stories is being sent to care homes throughout the local community; recognises that the decrease in visitors to care homes as a result of the ongoing pandemic is proving very difficult for many residents; recognises that sharing the students’ hard work and creativity will not only entertain residents, but also help many to feel more connected; and offers recognition and thanks to the pupils of Lasswade High School and young people across Midlothian for their bravery and strength in these trying times.
