McMillan Welcomes Inverclyde Charities Cash Boost

Stuart McMillan MSP, (SNP) has welcomed the Scottish Government’s commitment to an Inverclyde voluntary care organisation with new funding.

The funding for Greenock Medical Aid Society will help to meet the cost of staff training and development through the Voluntary Sector Development Fund.

Mr. McMillan said;

"I am delighted Greenock Medical Aid Society will receive almost £20,000 which emphasises the SNP Government’s commitment to improving the skills in such organisations.

"The voluntary sector provides a vital support to our local community and this has been particularly important during the challenging economic times we have seen recently.

"I am pleased they will be able to develop to their full potential with the aid of the Scottish Government’s funding which will equip staff to work more effectively with the people in Inverclyde who rely on their help and support".
