We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Jeane Freeman.

During our time working with her as Cabinet Secretary for Health, her willingness to harness the strength of the third sector in health challenges relating to Covid-19 made a huge difference for people in Scotland.

Davie performed life-saving CPR to fellow player John during a walking football match. It saved John's life but the emotional impact didn’t end there.

People are often left reliving what happened, asking themselves: Did I do the right thing? Could I have done more?

That’s why we’re here. ❤️👇
