This episode was recorded ahead of the official Opening Ceremony of the Scottish Parliament, marking the beginning of our seventh session. As has become customary, MSPs invite one person from their local area to join us at Holyrood, to take part in the events of the day. We call these guests our local heroes, as they are selected thanks to the incredible work they do in their communities. All have fascinating stories, and in this episode you'll meet four of them.
