At our Fresh Start annual AGM, which took place on Thursday, December 7th, Mr GAD (Sandy) Clarkson a Director for the past two decades, stepped down from his role as Chairman. Sandy will continue as a board member (Director) and we extend our sincere gratitude for his dedicated contribution to Fresh Start and for the many years of service he has freely given. Sandy’s unwavering commitment during the significant changes that Fresh Start has undergone has been invaluable to the organization.

Mr Mark Burns, our former Deputy Chair, has been appointed as the new Board Chairman. As Fresh Start looks toward growth, it is fitting that Mark, with many years of experience in project development, steps into this position. In place of Mark’s previous position, Finola Barr has stepped up as the new Deputy Chair, and John Griffiths has taken the role of Treasurer. We are immensely grateful to all our Board members for their dedication and time, which they have so graciously volunteer.

Fresh Start looks forward to the future with a sense of excitement and appreciation for the past.
