Performance
2024 was another challenging year for TSNE CIO, as Trustees resigned from their posts leaving us below our threshold of Trustees according to our constitution. Trustees are working on recruitment from the current number (3) to the threshold number (6) which will mean that normal activity can resume.
We have now set up a bank account, but no transactions have been made. No activity has yet taken place aside from meetings of the trustees.
