The AGM is an important annual event for the charity – it offered reflection of the past year during the pandemic and hopes for the future as normality returns.

SWALLOW members have been adversely affected by COVID, disruptions to normal routines and health vulnerabilities caused

anxiety and concern.

SWALLOW has been offering help and support throughout and a huge thank you at the AGM went to SWALLOW staff for their dedication and care.

Stephen Barran, Chair of Trustees, said: “It was lovely to see so many people come together at the AGM to celebrate SWALLOW’s achievements over the past year, the going has been tough at times but everyone has pulled together to make sure SWALLOW members get the support they need. I am very proud of the whole team.”
