<p>Welcome to the first issue of Wounds International this year. It is all change at Wounds International towers and it is with a heavy heart that we say farewell to Suzie Calne as Journal Editor as she begins her new role as Clinical Manager, where she will focus more on our conferences and new initiatives. Suzie is very much appreciated among wound care professionals and was one of the founding editors way back in 2009 when Wounds International launched its first ever issue. Thanks to her editorial stewardship, the journal has gone from strength to strength and we will continue to publish practical and current information from renowned healthcare professionals from around the globe, offering an instant update on the most important developments in wound care. I can say on a personal level that Suzie has been hugely supportive with her wealth of wound care knowledge (Suzie started her career as a nurse!) and her easy manner. She will be able to use her positive influence and vast knowledge when she continues in her new role — it is farewell then, but not goodbye!</p>
