This is my first time writing to all of you, our wonderful donors and supporters of Scope. I would like to start by saying I am honoured and excited to have this opportunity to lead Scope. I am so proud to be part of an organisation that is making a difference to the lives of thousands of people with disability.

It’s hard to believe that I have been with Scope for nearly 5 months already. I have spent much of this time learning about our organisation by interacting with my colleagues on the Board, our dedicated staff and our wonderful customers spread across different Scope facilities.

The more I meet with everyone, the more impressed I am by the pride, energy and level of enthusiasm with which everyone speaks about Scope and its future.

This is an exciting period of transformation for Scope as we continue to establish ourselves nationally. Scope continues to be at the forefront of excellence in service delivery in the Victorian Disability Sector. With the recent expansion into NSW, Scope is now able to increase its social impact and raise the voice of advocacy for people with disabilities across Australia.

Thank you for your ongoing support and loyalty to Scope, I look forward to meeting some of you in the future.

Thank you once again.

Kind regards,

Kate MacRae

CEO
