Welcome to the AGM of 2012
Firstly welcome to the new “home” of the Elders Council, it’s very new for all of us but we are very grateful to one of our partners, University of Newcastle, for offering us this space. It has been a busy year despite funding cuts on a large scale and I hope you’ll enjoy reading the Annual Report at your leisure as it will give you a more comprehensive view of work over this last year
