About Eilidh

EILIDH was born in 1969 in Aberdeen, and grew up in Macduff, Banffshire.

She was elected as Member of Parliament for Banff & Buchan in the 6th May 2010 election, following Alex Salmond who served as MP 1987-2010.

After studies in Scotland and Canada, Eilidh taught at Glasgow University for several years before moving into a public affairs role with the Scottish Carers’ Alliance, a network of carer, disability and children’s organisations working together to support people looking after elderly, sick or disabled relatives or friends at home.

In 2003 she moved to Oxfam where she worked as a policy adviser and campaigns manager for over six years in a role that took her to many parts of the world. Closer to home, Eilidh was very actively involved in the Make Poverty History campaign in 2005 and helped establish the Scottish Fair Trade Forum.

In her spare time, she enjoys music and reading.

SNP Westminster candidate for Banff & Buchan Eilidh Whiteford will present the prizes for the painting and poetry competitions at the Banffshire Maritime & Heritage Exhibition from 6.30pm on Friday 26 June at the Town Hall, Macduff.

The Banffshire Maritime & Heritage Association is a non-profit organisation run by volunteers. It was formed in 2003 to promote the local fishing heritage. Exhibitions are held annually and Banff & Buchan MP officiated at the event in 2006.
