You arrived when I think it is fair to say we were in need of having consistent and strong clinical, leadership at the CC and you provided that and much more. I know I speak for the whole of the Mental health senior management team in wishing you best wishes for the future. It goes without saying that if my journeys on the 7.46 will never be the same again!!
