Meet Team Fab

Here's a little bit about each of us ...

Leader

My name is Jenni, I’m 21 and I’m from Newcastle, a firm northerner! I have just graduated from Durham University and am just about to begin teaching primary with Teach First when we get home. I chair the Girlguiding British Youth Council delegation, sit on the WAGGGS Europe external representatives committee, and am hoping to join a new Guide or Senior Section unit super soon. I am delighted to be leading GOLD Tanzania 2013 and have loved meeting my fab team who I have complete faith in to be brilliant.


Documenter

My name is Clare Nolan and I am currently twenty and I am from Liverpool but I am studying for my degree in R.E. in Chester University. I am a senior section leader in Liverpool. I am hoping to eventually be a teacher, teaching Religious Studies. I am looking forward to meeting new people in Tanzania and seeing what guiding is like out there. My favourite thing so far has being a part of team fab and knowing how lucky I am to be a part of such a great team.


First Aider

My name is Megan Singleton and I am currently twenty four, I am very excited to have my twenty fifth birthday on Project! Currently I am Studying for a Masters in Health Psychology and Work full time. I Guide in Leicestershire with 1st Ashby Rainbows. I am very excited to be part of the Tanzania 2013 team and can’t wait run lots of games and activities.





Resources

Heya my name is Hannah, I’m 20 and from Worthing West Sussex. I’m currently a pre-school teacher at St Matthew Pre-school. Guiding is a huge part of my life, I am a brownie leader at 17th Worthing but also help run a 2nd Worthing Rainbow and 13th Worthing Guides. As well as doing 3 units, I attend 2 Ranger units and also a peer educator for my county. I have been on county and region trips before to South Africa, Flamboree in Belgium and exchange project with USA Girlscouts. I am very much looking forward for being part of team Tanzania and increase my knowledge of guiding in the country to bringing back new ideas and activities to my units.


Treasurer

I’m Jenny Wilson, aged 25 and newly reunited with being a resident of London. Just prior to moving back to London, I lived in Swindon where I was a Brownie and Guide Leader as well as District Commissioner. This will be my first proper international Guiding adventure and I’m really looking forward to getting an insight into the Tanzanian approach. When not Guiding I work as a civil servant looking at science policies for developing countries and disaster risk reduction.

Secretary

I’m Rebecca Mayall and I’m 24 but will celebrate my twenty fifth birthday the day we arrive in Tanzania. I live in Sutton and work for two little museums running school visits and birthday parties. I also work for a charity called Sustainable Merton where I run the office and assist on projects. I’m a Brownie and Senior Section leader and this is my first international guiding adventure, though I plan on doing my international licence and going on more trips abroad. After returning from Tanzania I will be off to study for a PGCE in Primary education with my dream of becoming a Special Needs Primary School teacher in the future. I’m looking forward to meeting new people and learning lots of new activities and experiencing a new culture.
