A message from the Chair of The Wallich’s Board of Trustees, Oliver Townsend

“Sian brings years of experience at The Wallich, leading operations, partnerships and policy work – and that just scratches the surface of what she brings to the organisation.

Together with an experienced, and talented Executive Team, we are looking forward to seeing where The Wallich will develop in the immediate future as we look at a new strategy, and consider the best ways to continue strengthening our legacy as Wales’ leading homelessness charity.

The Board will look to open recruitment for a permanent CEO before the new financial year – in the meantime, we couldn’t imagine a better and stronger team to take forward our immediate priorities as an organisation.
