This year we've been on a mission to move forward with our transformation strategy, relaunched our innovative Multaka-Oxford team, and showcased some history-making stories of Oxford science, including the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine sculpture and Collecting Covid. And let's not forget our new Collections Online database and our first ever festive Curiosity Calendar.

None of this is possible without our fantastic audiences, wonderful supporters, and the incredible team I have the privilege to lead.

Thank you.

With best wishes for a peaceful festive season and a happy, healthy 2022.
