Meet Kayleigh.

Here are three things you might not know about Kayleigh:
- Kayleigh loves to explore Aberdeenshire’s countryside with her dog, Poppy, who she is completely obsessed with.
- Her favourite part of the job is working with the team to organise and deliver the various development programmes and playing a part in shining the light on all that there is to see and do in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.
- Since the start of the Northern Nights campaign and helping businesses to discover Dark Sky Tourism, Kayleigh has developed a new love for ‘looking up’ at night, using the apps to look at constellations and going ‘aurora hunting’.
