/Statement by D'Arcy Myers, interim chief executive:/
____
As a part of my work as the interim chief executive of Wikimedia UK the
board asked me to undertake a review of our structure and organisation.
This task has been ongoing for some time and concluded with the board
meeting held this past weekend.
With the board, I have concluded that some changes to the composition
and structure of the staff team will position the charity to deliver
best impact against our charitable objectives.
These changes may result in some redundancies, and the staff affected
are being informed. This has been a challenging time and I thank the
staff team for their professionalism throughout this period of review.
I look forward to continuing to lead the charity through the ongoing
transition until a permanent chief executive is in post and ready to
take over.
