"We will be sorry to see Helen retire from our Management Board. Helen has worked in the sector for over 20 years and in that time she has built an impressive knowledge and understanding of the landscape in Scotland. We will particularly miss her experience and expertise in the field of health at a time when there are great opportunities for our sector to contribute more. I wish her all the best in her well-earned retirement, and hope she finds the time to enjoy her other interests, including arts, travel and the great outdoors."
