Vera Bolter and Robert Weiner A particular vote of thanks to Vera and Robert who have decided to step down from the Board this year. Both have been there “from the beginning” and we will miss their sagacity and knowledge.
Thank you! • There have been many changes since our last AGM. Several staff members completed fixed term contracts and others have left as a result of contractual changes, new jobs or the large reduction in funding. • To those who have left we offer our thanks for their support and good wishes for the future • For those remaining our grateful thanks for all you do to help in so many ways.
