Greig has worked in community greenspace development for over twenty years.  He helped set up Wester Hailes Growers after working in the area for several years, and has worked part-time as its CEO since then.  Greig is particularly involved in ‘placemaking’ activities such as the development of the Greenway Hub.

Felicity provides finance and admin support at Wester Hailes Growing Communities. She brings a breadth of experience in finance and management across the charity, public and private sectors, and has volunteered with several local community and wellbeing charities. She enjoys getting out in nature whenever she can, has recently started gardening and looks forward to learning more from the Wester Hailes Growers.

Steve has recently returned to WHGC in April.  He was Wester Hailes Growers original head gardener and led the construction of our three community gardens.  He will be helping us build the adventure playground this year.

A passionate gardener since childhood, Richard is our Community Gardener at Clovenstone. He discovered his love for nature while helping out in his grandad’s garden, and when he’s not busy tending to plants, he enjoys immersing himself in books and exploring a diverse range of music—from the timeless beauty of Beethoven to the iconic sounds of The Beatles.

With a background in conservation ecology, outdoor and woodland education, creative arts, and outdoor therapy, Stephanie is passionate about the outdoors and strives for School Farm pupils at Canal View to have an inspiring and positive time in the project. She has many years experience guiding young people to make connections with nature through practical and enjoyable hands-on activities and experiences, promoting sustainable, community orientated, and climate-positive practices along the way.

Shona has been the School Farm Leader at Sighthill Primary for four years and recently started working at Canal View Primary.  She really enjoys helping the young people grow their own produce, gain new skills and confidence as well as an appreciation of seasonal produce.
