That the Parliament congratulates Iain Fenwick of Perth for creating the Perthshire Local app; understands that the app is available to download from both the Apple and Android app stores, and highlights everything from special offers and information, to menus at Perth eateries; believes that the objective of this app is to promote local, community businesses and help support the high street at a time when several businesses have closed their doors, it considers, due to the impact on trade of the energy and cost of living crises; commends the Perthshire Local project, which, it understands, has 150 businesses on board and over 20,000 followers, and wishes it every success in the future.
