New MWT boss 'hoping to inspire and connect'

The new head of Manx Wildlfe Trust is hoping the organisation can connect with and inspire more people.

Leigh Morris was appointed Chief Executive of MWT earlier this month, and brings with him 35 years of experience in horticulture, education and conservation.

Mr Morris says the organisation can play a key role alongside other partners to deliver the Islands Biosphere status.

He adds the Isle of Man has the opportunity to be part of an intiative which can both benefit Manx shores act as a model for other countries.
