Dear member,

What a wonderful occasion our Annual General Meeting turned out to be! It was wonderful to see so many of you come together — old friends and newer members alike — to reflect on the year gone by and to see the direction of our community. The energy and engagement in the room reminded me, once again, just how special PGITI is. The AGM was a real celebration of everything we have built together. Thank you to everyone who attended to hear about our wonderful Clubs. If you are interested in starting or joining a Club, Natalia Hollander would love to hear from you!

Thanks to the Lead Team!
At the AGM I was thrilled to thank the current Lead Team and welcome new LT members who will continue to steer our community forward. These are people who have stepped up with enthusiasm and commitment, and I have every confidence that they will bring fresh energy and ideas to everything we do. Please join me in giving them a warm PGITI welcome to Naina and Tara as they join the LT.

A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Events Team.
This year has been so much fun, and that is down in no small part to the extraordinary dedication of our events team. From intimate coffee mornings to larger social gatherings, from cultural outings to festive celebrations — they worked tirelessly behind the scenes to create experiences that brought us together, helped newcomers feel at home, and gave all of us something to look forward to.

Until We Meet Again — Have a Beautiful Summer!
And now, it is time to rest, recharge, and enjoy the sunshine! Whether you are travelling, hosting family, exploring your corner of the world, or simply savoring the slower pace of summer, I hope the coming weeks bring you joy, laughter, and wonderful memories.
Please do take care of yourselves and those around you. Stay safe, stay well, and look after one another.

We will be back at the end of August with a fresh program of events. Keep an eye on your inbox and our social channels for announcements as the new season approaches.

With warmth and gratitude,

Elizabeth
PGITI Chair
