Innes MacNeill - Head Ranger
Innes is Head Ranger. His experience spans over 15 years of managing the habitat, flora and fauna of Reserve. He is truly at one with Alladale. His knowledge of the local flora and fauna is positively encyclopedic and after a day on the Hill with Innes and his team of Rangers, guests never fail to return to the Lodge without singing their praises. Innes heads up the ranger team which currently includes David (nickname 'Poppy'), Ronnie and Ben, all of whom enjoy sharing their collective knowledge and enthusiasm built on over 50 years on the Reserve.
 Chris Sandom - Volunteer Programme Leader & Science Programme Researcher
Responsible for establishing and running the environmental volunteer programme. The programme aims to bring those passionate about conservation and wildlife onto the reserve, primarily to learn more about Scotland's environmental history and to examine what can be done to increase biodiversity, but also to make a contribution to conservation actions on the reserve. Chris joined us having completed his Masters in Managing Envirnomental Change at the University of St Andrews.
