An Taisce has appointed the popular  environmentalist and broadcaster, Ms Eanna Ní Lamhna, as president of the national trust.

Ms Ní Lamhna, a presenter on RTÉ Radio 1's Mooney Goes Wildprogramme, was unanimously elected at An Taisce's AGM last Saturday.

The National Trust also returned the current officers of the organisation for another year.

The organisation's chair, Mr Frank Corcoran,  said "Eanna has been a great supporter of our
projects, such as Green Schools, from their inception.  Her long experience and appreciation of environmental issues is an invaluable asset, not only to An Taisce, but to the country. "
