  • Motion reference: S6M-15610

That the Parliament congratulates staff at Aberdein Considine, who raised over £25,000 for the north-east Scotland cancer and haematology charity, Friends of ANCHOR; notes that staff from across the Aberdeen-headquartered property, legal and wealth firm decided to raise money for Friends of ANCHOR in memory of Fiona Wildgoose, one of the firm’s partners who passed away in March 2024; recognises that Fiona worked with Aberdein Considine for 20 years, latterly heading up the firm’s office in Dyce; understands that staff set an initial fundraising target of £20,000, dubbed "20 for Fiona" in recognition of her years of service with the firm; welcomes that this target was met in just four months and was surpassed by several thousand pounds, with staff taking part in challenges such as a 24-hour walkathon, the Loch Ness Marathon and a Three Munros challenge, and commends the staff at Aberdein Considine for their fundraising efforts and for such an impressive tribute to Fiona.
