Friday Footnote # 60
Each week we share loads of content amongst Team ION and with our network. Content that inspires us, which we find helpful, or just makes us smile. We thought we would start sharing these insights every Friday. Welcome to Friday Footnote.
Thanks for everything Jill
This week we said goodbye to Jill Davies, who is leaving ION after 7 years. As a leadership development specialist, Jill started in the LEAD Wales days and has worked with hundreds of Welsh leaders over the last 7 years. Based on some of the messages on our Facebook and LinkedIn pages earlier this week, Jill can be hugely proud of the impact she has had - we certainly are.
Best of luck on your next adventure Jill, keep in touch and thank you for everything you have done for the programme and our delegates. We'll leave the last word to one of our delegates - "Thanks so much for helping me see a path".

ION delegate picks up major sustainability award
We had some fantastic news this week. Gabriella Diana, who founded Onesta, who produce clothing using innovative, low-impact fabrics, and who is a current delegate on our New Leaders programme, has won a prestigious Marie Claire Sustainability Award for Best Sustainable Small Brand. You can read more on the Business Live website.
Congratulations Gabriella!
Become an extraordinary leader
We were delighted to announce a few weeks ago that, thanks to the European Social Fund, we are able to extend the period whereby our leadership programmes are fully funded. Programmes that start before the end of March 2022 will be fully funded. You can find out more about our latest programmes on our courses page.
We will be taking a short break from #FridayFootnote next week, but we'll be back in a few weeks time.
