According to the charity, her background in organisational development, community support and strategic leadership will help guide its work across East and Central Scotland as it seeks to meet rising needs.
The charity launched its latest winter appeal amid what it described as sustained demand for pet welfare support, rehoming services and community outreach.
In her new role, Morgan will oversee the next phase of the organisation’s strategy, which includes maintaining its core care operations and supporting households struggling to keep their animals at home.
