Thanks for sharing all good but I particularly like 48 – I will refer to this throughout the year.
I think, if we are honest, that can be a challenge for everyone.
If it’s OK I will print the list off and share with Kathleen and Pauline this week as we meet as Bethany leaders to look at the year ahead. Great to have specific to focus on although not all at once!
