Chairs Report

2021-2022 presented many continued challenges as we moved into a new way of living and working and away from the pandemic situation.

Restricted funding continues to be spent according to the funder’s specifications, and as always we continue to find ways of working out of our community.

The Community Well project (in partnership with Three Trees) throughout it’s second year has provided us as a charity the opportunity to grow and develop _.. our skills, links and services we offer as we continually assess, reflectand =... develop the way we work.

Northern Star's reputation continues to hold us in good stead within the local and wider community and as a result has recently moved us into new and exciting pastures.

The constant change in challenges — expected or otherwise is the fuel that dives us and our staff to continually look forward and be ready for anything the community requires from us.

The board of trustees and myself would like to convey thanks to our staff who again continually and without question go above and beyond the call of duty and show real commitment to the needs of the community.

We look forward to another exciting year ahead.
