Chairperson Message
2021 was a challenging year, both for the organisation and the young people we support. This report will share how we strived to have the biggest impact in what had become a virtual world with experiencing a decline in our income. Throughout the upheaval of 2021 we strived to implement virtual sessions that would allow the young people we support to thrive during a testing time.
We would like to thank supporters of The Steve Browne Organisation. We deeply appreciate your continued support.
