The 2022-23 year was a transformational one for TLC. It’s both inspiring and humbling to look back and reflect on all that we did together in pursuit of safe, healthy, and happy relationships. As we started to navigate what life looked like in a post-pandemic world, our team grew significantly. We worked hard to create more ways to stay connected whilst embracing the flexibility of hybrid working. We hosted our first all-staff conference in December and will now host one annually. We also launched an internal TLC podcast as a way of helping our team stay connected - wherever they’re based. As a charity with proud Northern roots, we utilised our stronghold in Greater Manchester as a springboard into neighbouring areas, opening our first project in Cheshire West and Chester. We expanded our development capacity and grew our marketing and communications team. As we look towards what’s to come in the 2023-24 year, I’m filled with pride and excitement. "
