That the Parliament applauds Avryl Henry and Lyndsay McManus from Wishaw for participating in a sponsored 24 hour workout at Rivals Gym in aid of Chris’s House; understands that the duo began their quest at midday on 26 August, and completed their challenge at noon on 27 August 2022, with a little help from friends along the way; notes that Chris’ House is a Wishaw-based charity that provides 24-hours-a-day support for people in mental health crisis, as well as promoting positive mental health awareness and wellbeing across Lanarkshire; recognises what it sees as the huge positive impact the organisation has had within the community, with peer support groups, mentoring and motivational workshops all being offered, and wishes Avryl, Lyndsay, all their family and friends, the volunteers and community of both Rivals Gym and Chris’ House all the very best for the future.
