As I greet you, Presbyterian Support Otago is in a season of change and reflection. We have farewelled Jo O’Neill as our CEO and welcomed Robbie Moginie as our Interim CEO. We have also humbly received the report of the Royal Commission of Inquiry into Abuse in Care.
We are deeply sorry that people in our care have been harmed by us. We are committed to learn from our history and will be taking time to reflect on the findings of the Royal Commission.
We remain committed to serving the people of Otago as we have done for the last 118 years. We are grateful to all our staff and volunteers who continue to live our values of integrity, respect, courage, maanaki and aroha.
We are confident that together we can build a bright future. Thank you for keeping us in your prayers and upholding us as we work for our vision of seeing every person in Otago valued and growing in a safe and strong community.
