Maxine Fawcett-Sloan was a dear family friend and tireless advocate for a sustainable planet. Maxine was a leader in environmental and social change within the global energy industry, making the energy sector safe, responsible and helping to change attitudes towards the environment and safety. Maxine always placed sustainability at the heart of everything she did, she was a living embodiment of the concept, a leader and an inspiration.  She would have wholeheartedly supported the Greyhope Bay project and delighted in the mix of ecology, the arts and community of the coast of Aberdeen. Maxine sadly passed away on the 6th of June 2018, Greyhope will be a part of her legacy. 

Professor Laurence Mee was one of the leading scientific lights in global marine conservation and Director of the Scottish Association for Marine Science. He was a mentor and close friend and one of the worlds most innovative and engaging marine scientists. He saw the big picture, was an avid environmentalist, diver, sailor and science communicator. Laurence was a pioneer in sustainability and understanding the deep connections between people and the sea and brought this to the fore in his science and work with government. His work, and legacy, would be highly supportive of the Greyhope Bay project. Laurence passed away in August 2014.
