Bronwyn Brodie's charity trek

That this House commends the fundraising efforts of Bronwyn Brodie of Dunbar, a Learning Support Assistant at Musselburgh Grammar School, who trekked through the Wadi Rum in Jordan, also known as Valley of the Moon, and raised over £1,500 for cancer charity Maggie's; congratulates Bronwyn on completing the 100km journey in scorching weather alongside a group of a dozen other walkers who were equipped with just a backpack containing food, water, a first aid kit, and other essentials; understands that Bronwyn herself was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015, and that some of the group had been though cancer personally or had been touched by cancer through family members; notes that the fundraiser had originally been organised to trek through the Sahara desert in 2020 but was postponed due to the covid-19 pandemic; and wishes Bronwyn the very best with her future and any future fundraising opportunities.
