That the Parliament recognises and applauds the extraordinary life of Miss Cathrine (Tina) McInnes from Carluke; commends her immense contribution over the past six plus years with Homeless Project Scotland; believes that, in that time, she has helped to ensure that 3.2 million meals were provided to people in need, delivered life-saving Naloxone interventions and helped build and operate Scotland’s only fully volunteer-led night shelter, which has supported more than 38,000 people and prevented countless others from sleeping rough; considers that her life’s work has transformed outcomes for thousands experiencing homelessness; notes with admiration that this work follows Tina's own journey through the care system, homelessness and recovery from addiction, turning personal hardship into hope for others; notes with sadness her recent diagnosis of advanced cervical cancer, and sends its best wishes to Tina, her friends and her family.
