Brian Mackie
Brian joined Right There in 2020
Brian grew up in England, but returned to Scotland to do a university degree. He has since been a finance director for various consumer food and drinks companies.
Throughout my life, I have lived and worked in countries including Scotland, England, France, Holland and the Czech Republic, each time moving with the family.
I’ve been married for 36 years and we are now in our ninth house in our fifth country! Our children did most of their schooling at the British School in the Netherlands. They are now grown up and have fled the nest, so we are back in Scotland living near Glasgow.
I am semi-retired and enjoy travelling and playing golf. I keep busy with non-executive directorships of several food and drinks companies, as well as being a proud trustee of Right There.
I am keen to visit more of Right There’s programmes, meeting more of the people we support and the wonderful staff and volunteers.
“ Home to me means a place of peace, calm and stability. Having moved around so much in my career, it’s not the location that matters, its being close to family and friends.”
