Debate on Improving Outcomes for Those Living with a Neurological Condition

Alex stands with members of the Neurological Alliance of Scotland, MEAction Scotland, Cerebral Palsy Scotland, Epilepsy Scotland, Alzheimer Scotland, Parkinson's UK in Scotland, Headway Dundee & Angus, and Headway East Lothian.

Last night it was a privilege to bring forward a debate on improving outcomes for those living with a neurological condition, which I’m delighted received cross-party support.

I want to thank The Neurological Alliance of Scotland for their dedication to support people with neurological conditions, and it was great to meet with members of NAoS and some of their colleagues from MEAction Scotland, Cerebral Palsy Scotland, Epilepsy Scotland, Alzheimer Scotland, Parkinson's UK in Scotland, Headway Dundee & Angus & Headway East Lothian.

I also want to thank the other speakers who took part in the debate, Rona Mackay MSP, Brian Whittle MSP, Jackie Baillie, Rhoda Grant MSP and Daniel Johnson MSP, who shared my calls to ensure that the Scottish Government fulfil their commitment to spending £4.5m on the Neurological Framework.
