Rosstan Mazey – Chairman of the National Council
Chairman’s Report from National Council AGM – 26 August 2022
It wouldn’t be a year in review without acknowledging upfront the ongoing challenges and supply chain issues that Covid continues to present to us all. Despite this, the pandemic has brought about a re-set in the way people live and operate globally. Herein lies the opportunity for us all, as now more than ever is a time for wool to be part of the solutions for our changing world as we grapple with climate change and shifting from an extraction manufacturing-based system, dominated by man-made synthetic materials, to one which is far more renewable and circular, with natural fibres playing an increasingly important role.
