Appointments to the Board of Scottish Canals
The Minister for Transport and Islands has announced two new appointments to the Board of Scottish Canals, Carolyn Sawers and Wilma Kelly, who join as Non-Executive Directors. The Minister also announced the re-appointment of Martin Latimer.
We work to deliver the Scottish Government’s strategic objectives for public benefit - for everyone who lives, works or plays along the Scottish canals.
The Scottish canals are Scheduled Historic Monuments, and an important part of our history. We protect the waterways and conserve the natural and built heritage along the waterway corridors.
We are transforming the Scottish canals through regeneration, working with partners in local businesses and communities to create vibrant waterway corridors.
The Scottish canals contribute to Scotland’s economy – through tourism, regeneration, creating jobs, construction projects and new social housing, and through innovative water management.
