Our initial 3 Community Organisers: Steve Smith, Shabana Najib and Dawn Manners completed their training in March 2013 after a year of hands-on experience working in Sneinton and academic study. They were joined by Simone Miller and David Jones in December 2012 who are extending the CO work whilst training and studying themselves. David and Simone Miller also graduated as fully qualified Community Organisers and joined Alchemy as full time employees for a further year. Steve, David, Simone and Shabana are continuing their work in the area, through Sneinton Alchemy projects such as Near Neighbours and the Volunteer Training Programme, and through other organisations such as NOMAD (Notts Music and Dance). |
