YOUNG Enterprise North-East has appointed three board members to lead its regional One Day campaign.

Chris Braithwaite, chief operating officer of Wellstream International, Tom McLaughlan, director of UK Government relations at Accenture, and Rob Charlton, chief executive of _space architecture and management join the board.

Mr Charlton was one of the first businessmen to support the One Day appeal, which urges businesses across the region to give up one day of their resources, time or money to help inspire young people to follow their career paths in the North-East.
