That the Parliament celebrates the outstanding success of the Witches of Scotland Memorial Tartan campaign, which has significantly surpassed its funding goal in just a few days; acknowledges the pivotal role played by Clare Campbell, founder of Prickly Thistle, in designing this meaningful tartan; understands that Prickly Thistle has successfully brought tartan weaving back to the mainland Highlands, employing 15 people, and has achieved B Corp certification; recognises the importance of supporting ethical businesses that prioritise sustainability and community values, and commends the Witches of Scotland campaign for its dedication to honouring those persecuted under the Witchcraft Acts, promoting justice and preserving Scotland's rich cultural heritage.
