Board meeting update September 2020 (Q3)
We continue on our path through our stepping stone stragey
It has been a very busy quarter here at Cattanach HQ as we continue through our 2020 Stepping Stone strategy, focusing on key internal and external change while preparing the foundation for our 2021-2025 strategy.
At our recent board meeting on 3rd September 2020, Trustees bid a fond farewell to Duncan McEachran who is stepping down from the board after a 9-year tenure.
Following a very successful recruitment drive with an incredibly strong field, we are delighted to welcome Dr Patrica Jackson and Heather Coady onto the board.
