  • Motion reference: S5M-21552

That the Parliament celebrates the work of the staff at David Walker Gardens in Rutherglen, which is a care home operated by South Lanarkshire Council that is named after the late Strathclyde regional councillor, its use of music and dance to boost the spirits of residents and ease the difficulty of separation from loved ones during the COVID-19 outbreak; recognises this as an innovative and uplifting daily event at the home, which is known as "Rock around the Pool"; commends all of the workers for their kindness and dedication in bringing it about, and hopes that other care homes across Scotland will follow this excellent example
