New Operational Chapter for the Trust

After close to 18 years of dedicated service, a familiar and trusted presence at Community Trust South has retired.

Office Manager Ngaire Hamilton finished up with the Trust in April 2026, having played an integral role across many areas of the organisation, including the funding team, minute taking, marketing and communications, and office management.

Often the first point of contact with the Trust, Ngaire became known as the welcoming face and voice for many in the Trust’s communities, while also working behind the scenes to ensure the organisation operated smoothly day to day.

Community Trust South Chief Executive Officer Jackie Flutey acknowledged Ngaire’s significant contribution to the Trust.

“Ngaire has been an integral part of our journey for many years, and her dedication and professionalism have made a real difference to our mahi and to the support we provide to our communities. The Trust thanks Ngaire for her outstanding service and wishes her all the best for her retirement,” Mrs Flutey said.

Building on this strong operational foundation, Community Trust South has appointed Nicollette Ramlall as the Operations Coordinator. Nicollette will bring strong operational knowledge and enthusiasm to the role, supporting the Trust’s continued focus on strengthening its operations to better support its communities across the rohe/region.
