Dear colleagues across the arts sector,

It is undeniably strange to be starting this role at a time like but I have been hugely fortified by your good wishes and by the warmth of the welcome I’ve received from staff and Council members. Two weeks in, I am struck by everyone’s commitment to conducting business as usual (as far as possible) and the sense of dignified professionalism that pervades the organisation and the sector.
