Dumfries and Galloway woman appointed to South of Scotland Enterprise board

A Stewartry woman has been appointed to the board of South of Scotland Enterprise.

Kirsten Hannay, who is the managing partner of Kirkdale Estate near Carsluith, is one of four new board members.

Her varied role at Kirkdale includes responsibilities for farming, forestry, rural diversification, native woodland creation and long-term property management. She has also set up and runs a holiday let business and has created a holiday lodge park on the estate.

The three other new members are Berwickshire Housing Association vice chairman Viv Cockburn, former international mountainbiker and destination and legacy manager for Innerleithen’s Endur Sports Organisation Emma Guy and CENSIS CEO Paul Winstanley.

Chairman of South of Scotland Enterprise Professor Russel Griggs said: “I am delighted to welcome our four new board members to South of Scotland Enterprise.

“All bring different skills and experience to the board and all have extensive knowledge of the south and therefore know the various exciting opportunities we have in front of us.

“We want the south to be bold, ambitious and different and I think each of our appointments will help us advance our journey to achieve this.”
