Our Team

TAKKI SULAIMAN

Chief Executive Officer
"It is a real privilege to have joined Argyll and Bute TSI in March 2021 to serve an area where my family and I have lived since 2015. The third sector plays a crucial role in supporting our communities from providing valuable health and social care services that helps us stay independent to innovative environmental organisations and social enterprises. Your TSI is changing to meet new needs and we are really excited that we are working on establishing a state-of-the-art training hub in Inveraray. Watch this space too as we develop new support services through a revamped website and member portal."
