Sussex Wildlife Trust: New Chief Executive


From today, Chris Corrigan is the new Chief Executive of Sussex Wildlife Trust, to whom I wish a welcome, and also best wishes for the future, and many thanks for your work this last 4 years, to Tor Lawrence (blog), the outgoing Chief Executive.

I shall cut & paste below about this appointment from the Trust's website:

Chris is an experienced executive and has a long history in conservation, having held senior roles with RSPB and more recently at Birdwatch Ireland. Chris is a resident of Sussex and knows and respects the work the Trust does to protect and restore the natural environment.

Chris said,

"I am delighted to be joining such a strong and successful organisation as the Sussex Wildlife Trust. The current scale of the biodiversity and climate crises is unprecedented but all is not lost. Our job is to make the biggest possible difference for wildlife and provide hope. I have been hugely impressed by the wealth of talented and knowledgeable staff and volunteers and as a team I am confident we have the capability to make Sussex a better place for nature”

The Trustees and our staff team are looking forward to welcoming Chris to the Trust when he starts on 22 August.
