My initial focus will be on fostering collaboration by getting to know our team, enhancing stakeholder relationships, and personally visiting all our services. Committed to strategic growth and social impact, and backed by a skilled Board and committed staff, I’m confident we’ll not only meet but exceed our goals, continuing to be a beacon for inclusivity.’
