At a recent morning service at Inverness East Church, a special plaque was presented to Susan MacKenzie by the Rev Prof Andrew McGowan to mark her 33 years as Captain of the church’s Girls’ Brigade Company. Susan joined the Company as a four year old in 1959 and was commissioned as an Officer in 1977, taking over the Captaincy in 1985.
During her time as an Officer Susan also served in many roles within Highland Division, GB Scotland and GB Europe and was elected National President of Girls’ Brigade Scotland from 1999 to 2005.
