Please take the time to meet some of the staff and young volunteers, and find out what they do. We will add to this page all the time so keep popping back!
Due to Heritage Lottery funding we are very lucky to be able to employ a project worker for 1.5 days a week for the next 18 months for our Project TreeCycle. Our Project Worker is also a volunteer of the Group and will continue to volunteer for 3 days a week.
Over the past 8 years we have achieved where we are today by sheer hard work, long days/nights, total committment and determination. We have be sponsored, supported and helped along the way by some tremendous professionals from across UK. Thank you!
Everyone who has been involved in the Group in the last 8 years has been a volunteer!
Although we have a steering group/committee everyone in the Group has the chance to make the decisions, and is also land manager through our ownership of The Colin Burt Reserve for Wildlife Conservation. Therefore the Group is run by all of us!
Mark Pearson - Mark is the Group founder and Chairman.
Sharon Pearson - Sharon is the Group Treasurer and carries out an enormous amount of admin behind the scenes keeping us right on aspects of insurance, charity policy and finanical management.
Caroline Burt - Cazz has been the Project Woodland manager for the past 3 years and has helped with the general day to day running of the Group, looking after the public relations and admin. Project Woodland is the project name of our wildlife reserve. She has now just been successful in the recruitment process for the post of Project TreeCycle Project Officer.
Alistair Mcleod - Alistair was the first Explorer Scout to join the Group around 5 years ago and has stayed with us ever since. He has completed the HNC in Countryside Management and at present is a ranger at the Scottish Deer Centre near Cupar. He has just taken on the role as a technical officer for the Group. He will advise us on all the technical aspects of each project we undertake. If he doesn't know he will find a person who does, so watch out if you see him heading your way!
