We are delighted to be working closely with Holly Tett as she prepares to travel to travel to Malawi in January to take over from H.E. Simon Mustard as British High Commissioner to Malawi.

We are delighted to be working closely with Holly Tett as she prepares to travel to Malawi in January to take over from H.E. Simon Mustard as British High Commissioner to Malawi.

As with Simon and his predecessors before him, we are supporting Holly Tett’s induction into this role and we look forward to welcoming her to Scotland on the 6/7 December to meet with the Scottish Government, the Scottish Parliament and members of the SMP.

Holly has already met with the Secretary of State for Scotland, Lord McConnell and the Malawi High Commissioner, and is committed to supporting Scotland’s longstanding friendship with Malawi.

We’re thrilled to be working with Holly and wish her every success as she starts this important posting.

We love the fantastic videos she has been posting online in recent weeks showing her progress as she prepares for Malawi – including packing bags, reading lots, meeting key folk, and even learning Chichewa with her four children! These videos are great fun and offer members a lovely way to get to know Holly before she travels to Malawi. Wonderful to have such friendly face heading up the Malawi High Commission and representing Scotland and the UK’s friendship with Malawi.

Please email the office if you would like to join the meeting with Holly Tett on the 7th December.
