Community spirit and the Coalsnaughton evacuations
Tabled 9 June 2026 by Brian Leishman
That this House extends its thanks to all those who have supported, and continue to support, residents affected by evacuations in Coalsnaughton; recognises the worry, disruption and uncertainty faced by families who have been forced from their homes; pays tribute to the individuals, charities, businesses, and community organisations who have stepped up to help neighbours in need during this hard time through acts of kindness, generosity and solidarity; notes the overwhelming community response from those who have donated food and essential items, offered practical support, cared for pets, raised funds or simply been there for one another; believes that in the response to this upsetting situation we have seen the very best of Coalsnaughton, Clackmannanshire and the wider community; views these acts of compassion as an example we should all follow; and expresses its complete gratitude to every person who has played a part, big or small, in supporting those affected.
