Your MAA Board have kept busy despite the pre-Christmas distractions. It was an unusual and challenging year in so many ways.
I would like to sincerely thank your committed MAA Board team for all their work during 2020 and for the support they have provided to me as we have explored and embraced the opportunities to improve the lives of those across Australia affected by MG in all its forms.
There is much work looming for 2021 and many opportunities to be developed. I hope that readers will continue to keenly follow our efforts and offer support as they are able.
