Deputy First Minister & Cabinet Secretary for Health and Weilbeing Nicola Sturgeon officially opened the Brooksby Health and Resource Centre in Largs on Tuesday in front of local dignitaries, health professionals and local GPs.

Ms Sturgeon said: "Coming back to Largs is a bit of a homecoming for me as I was born and bred in Irvine and have family connections with Largs - it is very familiar to me. The new health centre is a sign and a symbol of where Largs is and where it is going in an ambitious and wonderful town. I have been given a tour of the impressive facilities which are modern and state of the art and reflects the town's ambition. I have been really impressed with the atmosphere. It is so spacious, bright and airy and very welcoming."
