Board changes

Since my ‘Summer Resilience’, TMI Board Directors Diana Cavanagh and Martin Royds decided to move on and have resigned from our Board.

Diana Cavanagh

Diana has been a Director since replacing her father, our Founder, the late Tony Coote AM in 2018. We have benefited greatly from her guidance in helping Mulloon continue to fulfil Tony’s vision. Her recollections of early days at Mulloon Creek have helped us all better understand the changes that have occurred over the decades.

We have appreciated her commitment to landscape repair and her sustained and ongoing dedication to the team at Mulloon Creek Natural Farms (MCNF).

Martin Royds

Martin has been involved with MCNF and the Institute over many years and was a member of our former Advisory Council before joining the Board. Martin also stepped in to assist MCNF as interim farm manager following the departure of Michael Fitzgerald and kept things rolling until Jim Steele was appointed.

We are very grateful for the contribution both Diana and Martin have made during a time of change and growth. We look forward to their ongoing interest and support of our activities as we work on the many degraded catchments across the nation. Martin’s expertise on regenerative agriculture, his widespread collaboration with practitioners and his standing in the industry is very well recognised. Martin will provide input into TMI’s future projects in an advisory and consultative role.

We will be looking to replace these vacancies as soon as possible and will keep you posted.
