The Anderton Centre is excited to announce that Caroline Scholz has officially been appointed the new Chief Executive Officer of the charity run outdoor activity centre based in Rivington, Chorley.
The Anderton Centre has been running residential educational programmes along with fun, safe learning experiences for over two decades. The centre continues to run successfully by a board of Trustees but Caroline, CEO said: “We feel now is the time to drive the charity forwards and I am confident that the centre will benefit from my previous years’ experience both in industry and in the charity sector.”
Caroline said: “Everyone thinks you need to go to the Lake District for outdoor activity days and residentials, particularly the water-based activities – but we have the most beautiful landscape and wonderful facilities, including our very own 2km reservoir which we have exclusive use of here in Rivington. I want to make sure everyone interested in our outdoor activities gets the opportunity to take part, enjoy the location and amazing activities we have to offer. Our instructors are so enthusiastic and skilled, it’s easy to see the possibilities for expanding both the types of activities and the way we engage with clients.”
Caroline is also a volunteer Trustee for another charity and brings a wealth of experience to The Anderton Centre, she said: “The team at the centre have been so welcoming that it doesn’t feel like I have only been here a couple of weeks, I feel like I have already been accepted as part of the family, I am very excited for the future of The Anderton Centre.”
