Meet the Team

Amulree Welch, General Manager

As General Manager, I am responsible for the leadership and management of Remake.

My focus areas include delivering our strategic plan, representing the organisation to key stakeholders (such as funders and community partners), leading and supporting the staff team, and supporting our Chair and Board. We are however a small team and work together to tackle what needs done, so in practice I can get involved in anything!

Working in Remake helps me to feel more involved with my local community and feel that I am making a practical contribution to tackling the climate crisis.

Mhairi McNeill, Reuse Hub Manager

As Reuse Hub Manager my role is to ensure the smooth operation of the Reuse Hub; offsite, onsite, and at our Reuse Container at Crieff Recycling Centre. My focus includes the intake of donations, ensuring our own eco-friendly waste streams as well as the smooth running of our shop floor Thursday to Saturday.

Team spirit, volunteer happiness and customer satisfaction are all part of my daily job.

Izzy Gretton, Textile Coordinator

I am responsible for all things textile. My main tasks are sorting through the huge amount of textile donations and designing, scheduling and running reuse and repair workshops. My position is funded by Gannochy Trust. I am passionate about textile reuse and passing on sewing skills to the community.

Lynn Ramsbottom, Reuse Hub Assistant

I have been working at Remake for many years and have done the majority of Reuse Hub jobs over the years.

I am currently responsible for researching rare and unusual items donated to us to help determine how they should be priced. This keeps me very busy and I thoroughly enjoy delving into the fascinating world of curios.

Tracey Oates, Finance Coordinator

I run all the day to day financials for Remake and put together the annual accounts. I have been with Remake for many years.

Robin Kesson, Reuse Hub Assistant & Tool Library Coordinator

There are so many different tasks in the Reuse Hub and I get involved with most of them.

I am the main contact point for the Tool Library which involves managing the booking system, collating the items and dealing with returns.

Jake Darby, Reuse Hub Assistant

I work within the Reuse Hub team here at Remake. One thing I've learnt since joining is every day is a school day, we're constantly learning in this job, everyday we get such an amazing mix of items coming through the door and part of my job is to sort through everything. It's truly eye opening to see some of the incredible donations and even better to see them going to a loving home.

I joined Remake because I loved the whole reuse and recycle ethos. I've always been one for trying to reuse and recycle as much as possible. Since joining I've learned so much about how our actions impact the earth and the environment. I've taken steps to further reduce my own carbon footprint and become more self aware when it comes to waste and recycling.

Marie-Claire Fisher, Community Engagement Co-ordinator

My role involves working in the local community, running various creative projects to support groups to be more sustainable with their practices. I organise a monthly Repair Café at Crieff Connexions, as well as Climate Cafés where people can come together to discuss and learn about current climate topics.

I also work to increase youth engagement with Remake, whether that be through the various schools in the area, or through other youth centred organisations.

In addition, I am working on a carbon impact study to help measure the impact of our work at Remake and the influence this has on the environment. I am still new to the role and am very keen to work with a variety of groups across the Strathearn community.

Lily Keipes, Volunteer & Communications Coordinator

As Volunteer and Communications coordinator, I look after our talented volunteer brigade (we have over 60 volunteers at Remake!) and all the marketing needs of our wee charity. It's an exciting and busy role made all the brighter with the variety of skilled and lovely people that make Remake what it is!

I am originally from Luxembourg, but I moved to Scotland in 2016 and have found a home in Strathearn. I have a background in environmentalism that connects to my love for upcycling - just the right hobby for Remake! I also love most outdoor sports and can be found in the hills and cafes around Perthshire.
