Our ambassadors
Our ambassadors
Our charity is lucky to have many dedicated people across Scotland all helping to raise the profile of the positive action that can be taken to address the environmental challenges we face.
There are many trusted and respected voices of those with influence in Scotland. We believe that by working with them we can together set a positive example to others, inspiring even greater action.
#TeamKSB consists of a core staff team employed and led by our CEO Barry Fisher, a passionate, influential and knowledgeable Board of Charity Trustees chaired by Tom Brock OBE, and Honorary Fellows, recognised for their outstanding commitment and passion for the work of our charity, its people and our activities.
We also work with a small, influential and mighty number of charity Ambassadors.
