Volunteers have been thanked by the Health Secretary for their “huge contribution” to the vaccine rollout.
More than 25,000 hours have been contributed by volunteers to help with the national vaccination programme through a scheme organised by the British Red Cross.
Humza Yousaf has now thanked those who have given up their time and the volunteers involved in a community testing programme who have been delivering test kits to approximately 4,000 homes across Glasgow.
Mr Yousaf said: “It is fitting that during National Volunteers’ Week we acknowledge the huge contribution made by volunteers to our vaccination rollout.
He works as a taxi driver in Crawley and is married with three children.
The Mayor’s charity for 2021/22 is The British Red Cross.
Mayor of Crawley, Councillor Malik, said: “I am truly humbled and honoured to have been elected as the Mayor of Crawley.
“I don’t know if I will ever be able to pay Crawley back but I can assure you that I shall try to serve Crawley to the best of my abilities with compassion and devotion, and play my role in making Crawley an even better place to live. In the end, my heartfelt thanks to the one and only, ‘My Beloved Crawley’.”
