Right2Work’s Annual Report for 2018 is now available.
Right2Work Chair Phil Shea is incredibly proud of what has been achieved by the team and partners and those we support: “R2W is a growing and thriving organisation that carries out an increasingly diverse range of activities from a well organised and bustling centre.”
“We are a Community Interest Company (CIC) and are part of the Oaklea Trust – as such it is in a fantastic position to further expand and develop.”
“We are a successful business that makes a good working profit. This ‘realness’ is an essential characteristic of the organisation and is one of the things that enables it to work well in the diverse fields it operates in.”
“These are exciting times at R2W as we look at the direction the company will go in whilst retaining its essential DNA.”
“We strive to enhance the learning, well-being and involvement in the community. It is a pleasure and a privilege to serve as Chair.”
