Celtic Football Club

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates the many organisations in Scotland which work to challenge religious bigotry; welcomes the initiative taken by the Celtic Football Club in its Social Charter and its Bhoys Against Bigotry Campaign in seeking to promote equality and challenge bigoted attitudes through a programme of work with young people and their schools; notes that, in recognising the power it has to influence the way young people see their world and in showing a willingness to use that power positively, Celtic Football Club provides an excellent model for those who wish to tackle bigotry and discrimination; acknowledges the immense potential of such an approach; urges Scotland’s football and other sports clubs to consider pursuing similar initiatives; believes that the Scottish Executive should consider how it might support the development of this work across Scotland
