We are delighted to welcome Narek Bido to LCiL, CEO.
Narek is a dedicated third-sector leader with over 25 years of experience supporting individuals and communities impacted by poverty, addiction and mental health challenges.
With a background in Business Management, he has also held a range of roles in L’Arche — an international federation of communities that provide inclusive living environments for disabled people.
More recently, he was CEO for Recovery Scotland, a charity focused on supporting individuals on their recovery journey from addiction to mental health issues.
Passionate about community development, citizen empowerment, and advocating for the rights and wellbeing of all people, Narek told us that his leadership is grounded in compassion, inclusion and a strong belief in the power of service to transform lives.
We’d like to take the opportunity to say a big thank you to our current Interim CEO Florence Garabedian for her leadership and support during this time of transition. Her 6 months with LCiL has enabled the Board and staff to look at the future with confidence and welcome LCiL’s new permanent leader with renewed energy.
