Margaret Begg. Margaret has recently retired from being a local councillor after 23 years in this role, latterly with responsibility for environment on Warwick District Council. This has given her extensive experience of the local democratic process which will be very helpful to Action 21. Margaret looks forward to working with the board to develop new environmental projects of lasting impact in the local community. Margaret is a Trustee of Hill Close Gardens. She is keen to develop links between the Hill Close Gardens Trust and Action 21 and believes that it should be possible to instigate some beneficial work involving both organisations. |

Chris Pollock. I recently retired after 40 years in various senior management roles in large engineering groups. Most of this period was spent in Sales, Marketing and Business Development, mainly in international markets. In the last few years I have become increasingly interested in ecological and sustainability issues and now wish to support Action 21 in their projects, using the skills and experience I have acquired over a long and successful business management career. I am particularly interested in helping develop the Recycle Warehouse business, as the main source of revenue for Action 21. I am convinced that there are good opportunities to substantially increase this business in a professional way with the support of the excellent team of staff and volunteers at Princes Drive and I have enjoyed my first few months working with them |
