Head of Engagement
Speaking about her new role, Carmel said: “I’m honoured to take over as Head of Engagement for MWT. Our new CEO’s vision is for a community and place where people and nature can thrive together, and which can be a beacon for environmental recovery.
“With the acquisition of significant new sites, including 1,124 acres at Glen Auldyn, temperate rainforest restauration initiatives and a number of exciting developments, it’s a great time to be joining MWT.
“Nature has a vital role to play in supporting the prosperity and wellbeing of people and communities, and I’m thrilled to contribute to that mission.
“Most of all, I feel incredibly fortunate to be working in nature conservation here at home, in the Isle of Man.”
