The drive to meet commitments and create new opportunities

“There was a decline in opportunities when the pandemic started in 2020 so we focused on developing funding through our existing network and sought opportunities for direct commissioned grants. Since then opportunities in many sectors have returned to normal and we have increased the quantity and quality of our bids through enhanced evaluation, leading to a much higher success rate in 2021.“
