Stories
You can find out here what some of the pairs from the previous Leaders Together thought of the project. We hope to be able to add some new volunteer stories soon, watch this space.
Helen & Mash
“I got really excited. I thought it could be a great local community project - employing over 55’s, refugees and young people and using recycling materials.”
Edith & Lidi
Like many others, Edith Hamilton was keen to broaden her skills and her horizons. Whilst her job as Interim Finance Director at CILT, the National Centre is extremely busy, Edith was keen to help mentor someone from a Refugee Community Organisation and the project Leaders Together seemed the best route.
Andy & Alba
Andy says "I heard about Leaders Together and felt that I could put my skills, experience and substantial knowledge of all aspects of governance and management to good use by mentoring a Refugee Community Organisation (RCO) leader."
Jackie & Ahmed
Seeing real benefits already, Ahmad and Jackie are continuing to work together, Ahmad says "I have more areas I'd like to speak to Jackie about including the business plan and I'm really excited about the opportunities that this mentoring relationship will bring in the near future."
