The staff and the volunteers of our Society committed themselves selflessly to the pursuit of the issue and made a major difference to what turned out to be a much more difficult and fractious campaign than many envisioned. The Board continued its efforts to steer the ISPCC ship through the very rough economic waters which we must navigate. We continued our policy of recent years of endeavouring to maintain the level of our services to children whilst reducing costs wherever possible. We largely achieved this but only by again utilising some of the reserves which the Society had built up in better times.
