Councillor Lorraine Cameron, provost of Renfrewshire, has nominated Craig Ferguson for the honorary award, which will be considered at a special meeting of Renfrewshire Council on Thursday, August 20. The trek aimed to raise awareness of men’s mental health and raised more than £77,000 for the charity Brothers in Arms. The Freedom of Renfrewshire is the highest civic honour in the region and has only been awarded six times previously. Councillor McMillan said: "I’m delighted to second Provost Cameron’s motion to award the Freedom of Renfrewshire to Craig Ferguson, in recognition of his achievements and commitment to raising awareness of mental health issues. Craig said: "Having grown up and lived in Paisley and Renfrewshire all my life, I never imagined I would receive recognition like this.
