That this House commends the Refuweegee Winter Clothes Appeal; notes that Refuweegee is a community led project set up to ensure that all refugees arriving in Glasgow are welcomed to the city in true Glaswegian style; supports the project's objectives to ensure that it provides everyone who wishes to make a difference the opportunity to do so; further notes that the aim is to provide every refugee who arrives in the city with a community built welcome pack, and that each pack will contain three categories of items; essentials, Glasgow welcome and letters from the locals and that as a result of the final category each pack will be completely individual and ensures that on arrival in Glasgow people are left in no doubt as to their acceptance, their safety and their future; notes that the current appeal for winter clothing is for young and unaccompanied children arriving in the next few weeks; congratulates Refuweegee for their work; and wishes them continued success in their objectives.
