The Trustees would like to pay tribute to the huge commitment Mhora has shown in her time as Director and thank her for all her many contributions to the Trust’s success.
Tim Eyles, Chair of the Trustees commented: ‘I’d like to thank Mhora very much indeed for all her hard work at the Trust and on behalf of all the trustees wish Mhora every success in the next phase of her career.’
Mhora Samuel said: ‘I have enjoyed my 10 years at the Theatres Trust immensely and am so proud to have had the opportunity to work alongside and support really talented and committed people who have brought new life to the theatres in their care. Leading the Trust’s campaign to include cultural well-being in planning policy in 2012 will be one of the most memorable highlights of my working career. I leave the organisation in its 40th anniversary year in strong shape and with a fantastic staff team and trustees to take the Trust forward.’
