Celebrating International Women's Day Today we celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women and place a spotlight on equality, gender parity and leadership. I want to single out the women we luckily have on our team here at The Adventure People. We would not be where we are without the dedication, initiative, and leadership of our team throughout the past two years. I could not be more thankful and more importantly, our customers have been looked after in the best possible manner. The team of Petra, Charlotte, and Melissa (and Sam who sadly for us returned to New Zealand) have managed these challenging times with a smile and cheeriness I can only dream of. As the team begins to expand again, we welcome Rachael and Hannah as well as Shona making a return to re-join us. In the coming weeks we will have more news about our expanding team. I have no doubt we will go from strength to strength with the amazing talent we have leading our customers and partners. As I write I cannot help but think about Ukraine. Particularly those families making the most horrendous decisions to part, those alone trying to escape or to protect themselves. Those choosing to fight. The female lawyers, doctors, teachers, and everyone else now making Molotov cocktails in the parks. Those carrying guns and those running for their lives. The bravery and courage is both humbling and inspiring. The women of Ukraine are the leading light in these dark times. Our thoughts are with all of those in Ukraine. Chris CEO & Founder
