"The pandemic has led to profound shifts in the way we all live and shop, even our sense of self," "While this coming period of transformation will sadly mean the end of some Partnership stories, we have to change for the future of the Partnership. We have to resize the business – facing into and not shying away from difficult decisions – and seize the opportunities to regrow. The prize is a sustainable Partnership that is still thriving in 100 years"
