Brynn's Challenge Success

  • Submitted by: Beatrice Wishart, Shetland Islands, Scottish Liberal Democrats.
  • Date lodged: Monday, 14 December 2020
  • Motion reference: S5M-23688

That the Parliament congratulates Brynn Hauxwell from Shetland on wheeling 1,679 miles (the equivalent of the Shetland coastline) and raising over £6,000 for Ability Shetland; notes that Brynn who is 15 years old has been volunteering for the charity, which supports children and adults with additional support needs, for over two years; understands that Brynn was inspired to take on the challenge after Ability Shetland helped him to rediscover the great outdoors with use of an all-terrain wheelchair, and, with the organisation's help, Brynn was able to fundraise for a wheelchair of his own; considers that completing the challenge is a fantastic achievement, and wishes Brynn all the best for future adventures.
