**Lloyds TSB Foundation for Scotland has appointed Fiona Duncan as Deputy Chief 
Executive. She joins from Think Consulting Solutions where she has been a Director
for the past seven years, and takes up her post in August.**

At the Foundation Duncan will assist Chief Executive Mary Craig in developing the
organisation, following several tough years caused by a protracted dispute over 
funding from its main funder Lloyds Banking Group plc.

The post of Deputy Chief Executive has been vacant for some time.

Duncan said that she had had a very positive relationship with the Foundation since
she joined the charity sector twenty years ago, and described it as "an honour" 
to be joining the team.

"Over the years I have had a lot of interaction with the Foundation" she said, "
most notably when I worked on the Giving Scotland Campaign. The Foundation was the
first organisation I spoke to and, because of its reputation, having the Foundation
involved gave credibility and made it significantly easier to get other key players
on board."

Before her time with Think, Duncan had worked with Capability Scotland, WaterAid
and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (formerly the RSAMD).
