Dear all
I'm delighted to introduce *Sandy Balfour* as Wikimedia UK's Interim Chief Executive while I'm on maternity leave. Sandy has spent a couple of days with the team this week and is learning about the organisation and the wider Wikimedia movement whilst getting to know the staff team.
I will be starting my leave on Monday and am planning to return in October. Sandy will be covering my post part time, with some of my responsibilities being covered by Daria Cybulska, Head of Programmes and Evaluation.
*Sandy has a varied and extensive background - including both executive and non executive roles in the charity sector - and brings skills in leadership, financial management, education, media and communications. He is also a published writer and journalist. I'm sure many of you will get the opportunity to meet Sandy over the next seven months, in particular at the AGM in July.*
*With best wishes* *Lucy *
Welcome Sandy!
