Dear INGID members
For the past three years or so I have had the pleasure and privilege of communicating with you via the INGID web site and the INGID newsletter, hopefully keeping you up to date with events, offering a forum for Immunodeficiency nurses to drop in, sharing papers of interest, uploading presentations from conferences and sharing information that is of interest to us all.
Now it is time for change.
I have been directed elsewhere within the board and so I am simultaneously sad and excited as my very competent board member Rosalind Fisher will be taking the reigns here at the web site.Rosalind centre with Lorraine Ozerovitch Left and Geraldine Dunne Right. Lorraine is a valued former board member and Vice president of INGID I know Rosalind will do a great job of managing the web site and with respect, I ask all members to be a little patient with us as we undertake the handover across time zones while also organising the upcoming conference as I adapt and learn a new role.
Best wishes
Geraldine
