The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh (RCSEd) has appointed a new honorary secretary, consultant surgeon Miss Clare McNaught, who currently works for the Harrogate Foundation Trust.

She will take on the role in November 2020, when current Honorary Secretary Dr Judy Evans comes to the end of her term.
Miss McNaught said, “It’s a huge honour to be appointed Honorary Secretary for the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my involvement with the College over the years and have found it to be hugely useful for my professional development, so it means a lot to be taking on this role. I’m looking forward to a new and exciting challenge.” President of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, Professor Michael Griffin OBE, said, “Clare has proven her dedication to the College over the years, becoming an elected Council member, being involved in the Trainee Committee, founding and chairing the Younger Fellows Group. I’m sure Clare will bring that dedication and passion for surgery to the role, and I’m delighted to have her on board.”
