The long-serving CEO of OnFife has announced she will be stepping down.
Heather Stuart has led the organisation for nearly 14 years and will leave to take up a new role.
She will become chief executive of the Mount Stuart Trust on the Isle of Bute.
Ms Stuart said: "The decision to leave has not been an easy one.
"I believe passionately in the importance of what OnFife does and it’s particularly difficult to leave the organisation I set up as its first CEO.
"It’s been a privilege to lead OnFife, working with so many dedicated and committed people.
"I am proud of everything we have achieved over the years and I know this will continue because of the strong organisation we’ve built."
She added: "There’s never an ideal time to leave a role, however sometimes a personal opportunity comes up that shouldn’t be missed.
"It’s also important to allow room for different ideas and perspectives to come into organisations."
Gary Love, chair of the OnFife board, paid tribute to her leadership.
He said: "Heather has been an outstanding, forward-thinking CEO and has steered OnFife through many challenges over the years, at all times being driven to deliver the best cultural services possible for Fife.
"As the first CEO of OnFife she leaves the organisation in a strong place to build on its many successes."
Ms Stuart will remain with OnFife for the next three months as a transition takes place.
