Without you, my fellow trustees, none of this would happen. We are fewer, and that is very challenging, but we are a strong
and enviably tight unit of what I think are like-minded people, with a fabulous range of skills, a shared sense of what is right
for our community, what we can all give to help, all of which compliment each other beautifully. Karen, as ever, the voice of
reason, your 'Columbo-like' ability to bring your 'I just had a thought' clarity to so many decision and challenges is awesome.
We could not do it without your skills and dedication to keep us all solvent, happy and incisive. Pip, I envy your minute taking
ability, concise, accurate and all that while juggling a very demanding career and family and always with optimism, tenacity
and a smile. Simon, your great and well-honed skills of - 'let's look at this a different way', and 'why don't we try this', 'what
would happen if' and your humour make you a wonderful asset to the team. You also always bring in to focus that a sense of
humour invariably will see us through trying against at time tricky odds to get good and valuable stuff done for the town. My
personal ambitions for us in 2021- find 2 more Trustees that have a chance of coming up to the standards of your fellow
Trustees to ease the load, develop more partnerships with local Groups, collaborative working is a great way to move forward
into what I hope will be a more optimistic and safer year for us all.
