MEET OUR STAFF

raig-Park Farm Community Centre

Craig Fryer

Centre Manager
My involvement in community work began when I finished my A-Levels at college. I signed up as a volunteer at a local community centre and loved the good work that the charity was doing to improve the lives of people. That was ten years ago! I joined Park Farm Community Centre in November 2018 to deliver an exciting new Big Lottery Project and help this wonderful charity to explore new avenues and projects. In my spare time I enjoy a good true-crime Netflix documentary, going for walks with my high-maintenance pooch and dabbling with graphic design.

Nikki Anders

Youth Project Manager

Hi, I have lived on the estate for 15 years with my husband and three children. I have always been passionate in enriching children's lives. I originally qualified as a teacher, however after working in that field for several years, I realised that taking on a more pastoral role with children and young people suited me much better. I believe that is where my skills are needed. I absolutely love my job and working with those living in Clinkham Wood is very fulfilling! Children often get a bad reputation and I want to try and change that. Ultimately, the youth of today are the leaders of tomorrow.

Shannon Anders

Park Farm Youth Project

Hi my name is Shannon and I am a youth worker. I work at all of our youth projects. I particularly enjoy working with the younger groups like Park Farm Pickup and Afterschool Club. I love watching all the children grow in confidence when attending our setting and knowing I am a part of that is amazing. I have worked here for about 3 years, and previously attended as a young person myself. I have been involved for over 10 years. I like that I can work with children off my own estate, as an act of giving back. I am currently studying biology, chemistry, religion & ethics, and maths. It is as complicated as it sounds but it keeps me busy. I love that even after the hardest days at college I can come into work and the children manage to make me smile every time! I am hoping to go on to study medicine at university.

MEET OUR VOLUNTEERS

david-Park Farm Community Centre

David Bishop

Director

I was first involved in this community centre in the early 90s, back in the days when it was known as the "Black House", and when I was just in my teens. Fast forward 20 or so years, and I am back here giving my time and energy to our community once again. I truly believe Park Farm has a big and bright future at the centre of this community for years to come.

When I do have some spare time between volunteering at Park Farm and my full time IT jobs, I enjoy travelling. One trip that comes to mind as I write this is a weekend I once when in the town of Chernobyl, a holiday like no other. I also enjoy flying around the county side on my paramotor, high above the clouds with my music in my ears.
