“As we enter our 12th year, I wanted to reflect on some of the organisational developments we’ve undertaken.

This last year has been about consolidation. We have carefully and organically grown the staff team which now totals 16 with two new starters joining us this year taking the team to 18. When I began the journey, building the organisation, I never believed we’d become this size, dare to dream we could become even bigger!

We have also grown a fantastic team of consultants, who support us to deliver our training and consultancy services. And we are growing our volunteering offer with a major new investment from the National Lottery Community Fund, which is helping us to bring on board a volunteer coordinator to support and grow our volunteer teams. As well as continuing our excellent partnership with Goldsmiths, as we hosted four fantastic student placements during the last year. Each bringing their own unique individual vibrancy to the team.

My heartfelt thanks and gratitude go to Pat Rose and Steven Leather who retired at our AGM in Bristol, last year. They both gave so much to the Trust, over the last twelve years, and have been there since we began, providing their guidance and wisdom. The organisation is much stronger for their many contributions.

I am also indebted to our ‘NED’s’, as we fondly refer to our Board of Non-Executive Directors. Each of whom brings their great knowledge and insights into helping the organisation in its mission and strategy. We have six fantastic individuals on the board supported by myself, our Deputy CEO Annie Moon, and our Finance Director, Katrine Green.

Finally, thank you to our chair, Mark Greenburgh, whose unwavering support for both me personally and to the organisation keeps us strong and resilient.” – Berkeley Wilde, CEO
