Hot on the heels of announcing our two new Vice Chairs, Stacey and Andy, we're absolutely delighted to introduce the new Chair of the Elgin Neighbourhood Board — Jackie Andrews.

Jackie is a familiar and much-loved face around Elgin, and she brings a real depth of experience and a genuine passion for our town. Alongside her new role with us, she's Chair of Elgin Town Hall for the Community and an active member of Elgin Illuminations, so she's no stranger to rolling up her sleeves and getting things done for the people of Elgin.

Her professional background is just as impressive. Jackie was previously Associate Director of Curriculum & Quality at Moray College UHI, where she spent years championing education and helping people across the region reach their potential.

We couldn't be happier to have Jackie on board, and we're genuinely excited about everything the months ahead will bring under her leadership. Together with Stacey and Andy, we've got a brilliant team ready to listen, get stuck in, and make a real difference for our community.

Please join us in giving Jackie the warmest of welcomes! 👏
