📢 Huge moment for the #Tourettes community in Scotland! With I Swear now in cinemas, raising massive awareness thanks to John Davidson’s courage in sharing his life story, and Kirk Jones’ incredible direction — there’s finally momentum for real change! @SarahBoyack MSP has lodged Motion S6M-19389 calling for national guidance, school training & proper recognition for Tourette’s. Now we need MSPs across ALL parties to support it. 👉 Email your MSP (2 mins!) 👉 Tag them here so they SEE IT Find yours: parliament.scot/msps Thank you John for decades of dedication ✊ And thank you Kirk for bringing this story to the world 🎥 Let’s make sure this leads to action — not just awareness. #ISwear #TouretteScotland #S6M19389 #ASN #InclusiveEducation #Scotland #Galashiels #RobertAramayo #SEN @tourettescot @tourettesaction

The work of the parents of REPAIR advocating for Edinburgh kids with additional support and learning needs is astounding. What an impact they have had since formation on our councils policies and procedures. A true asset. 👏
Representatives from REPAIR & parent advocates, will be meeting with Jenny Gilruth to discuss Emotionally Based School Non-Attendance. A survey has been launched to gather valuable insights from families in Scotland, relating to EBSNA. s.surveyplanet.com/nmgb9r6c

I said at committee The SNP would put our money where our mouths were at budget time for this lifeline service. I will work as hard as I can to convince other political parties to match our investment in this critical lifeline for families of children with disability.
SNP Councillors are calling on other political groups to support additional money for ASN Holiday Hubs. Without extra investment children and families that rely on these clubs will miss out.

Holiday hubs have been eroded over the last few years. Simply mitigating the latest proposed cut won't do. The SNP budget will allocate a further £1m to restore the service to its former provision, ensuring holiday fun and respite for every family and young person that need it
Holiday Hubs provide lifeline respite for parents and carers in Edinburgh. On this, the families fighting their closure have been crystal clear. As has been our promise to them. Our budget provides £1m extra to expand - not just save - the service. ✔️
