My name is Hugh Gibson and prior to my current role I was focused on Environmental and Energy activity within my workplace, driving waste reduction, utilities reduction and high levels of waste recycling.

I enjoy walking and the outdoors, especially as part of motorhome-based family weekends away or trekking holidays. I engage in community volunteering to assist vulnerable and disadvantaged groups. I take an interest in reading and hearing talks about travel, overcoming personal adversity along with the history of exploration and science. I work in food safety as a pest industry Field Biologist and am looking to move into a sustainability-focused role; I have undertaken the IEMA Certificate of Environmental Management and am currently an Associate Member of IEMA.
