The Macular Society has appointed Tony Rucinski as chief executive officer.

Rucinski a former director of Scope and trustee of the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) will take over from Helen Jackman in May.

He has held several government advisory positions and has experience in the sight loss sector including as a trustee on the RNIB group board.
