On behalf of the Board of Tweddle, I am delighted to welcome Kent Burgess, who commences today as Tweddle’s Interim Chief Executive Officer.
As an organisation with a proud history of supporting babies, children and families, we are entering an important and exciting period.
With the proposed merger with QEC progressing, this is a significant time for Tweddle, and we are pleased to have Kent joining us to help lead the organisation through this next chapter.
Kent brings extensive leadership expertise across health care and community services, with significant CEO and executive experience, along with a proven track record of leading through change while focusing on high-quality client and community centred care for those most in need.
The Board, Executive Team and all Tweddle staff look forward to working closely with Kent to ensure our critical work continues uninterrupted to provide the exceptional care and support for which Tweddle is known.
Tweddle’s greatest strength has always been its people. Our dedicated staff, strong clinical expertise, collaborative culture and commitment to families are respected across the sector.
These strengths provide a solid foundation as we continue to evolve and embrace our new leadership team.
We look forward to navigating the path ahead with confidence, building on Tweddle’s legacy while shaping an even stronger future for the families and communities we serve.
Please join me in welcoming Kent Burgess to Tweddle.
Annette Mercuri
Board Chair, Tweddle
