Dear Safreans,

It is a strange feeling to be writing to you for the last time as your chair. Thanks to Covid, the committees that represent you have put in an extra year of service, so we have all been around for longer than any of us expected.

I am excited about what I am sure will be a fresh approach to managing Safrea and although the new chair will only be appointed during the first meeting of the new Exco, I am confident that the organisation will be in good hands.

Thank you to each of you who have supported me over the years. You are too many to mention individually but I value each one of you.

May all your pitches be profitable!
Lynne Smit, Chairman
