Annual Report 2020/21

Hear Us Annual Report 2021 – Chair’s Opening Statement

Angela Mitchell (Chair)

It has been an absolute pleasure and a privilege being Chair of Hear Us over the past year and being involved with Hear Us for the last four years. It is, therefore, with great sadness that I must announce that I am now leaving Hear Us to have more time for my own well-being.

This last year has been a huge one for Hear Us and one where we have been able to reap the benefits of the hard work of the previous two years.  We have been working hard to secure Hear Us’s finances, which we have achieved this last year. We are now able to expand our workforce and secure the future of all Hear Us activities. This has been due to the extreme passion and dedication of Hear Us staff and I would like to extend a huge thank you, on behalf of myself and all the Trustees. This has been a remarkable achievement in such a short space of time.

I would like to say a huge thank you to all our volunteers and link workers for their commitment to making sure that the voice of service users is heard loud and proud in Croydon.

I would also like to thank everyone in the organisation and our supporters and partners for helping Hear Us to achieve so much this year and for many years to come. Hear Us can look forward to a very exciting future ahead.
