Fellows Board launched!

Nov 19, 2015

As an organisation that aims to create opportunities for young people, we wanted to involve our alumni in the running of Making The Leap. Our new Board of Fellows gives them the chance to do just that. It will provide its members with personal and professional development, as well as helping us to reach out to our key audience. We’re delighted to introduce you to the team of seven who attended our very first Fellows Board meeting. Now working at top companies including PwC, Barclays, TeachFirst and HSBC, and ranging from ages 19-24, we are confident these individuals are going to add real value to our organisation and help us achieve our strategic aims.

The Fellows Board is chaired by Nicholas Williams, and vice-chaired by Gabriaella Sitaranjan. Members include Selvia Zejnuli, Nkem Ene, William Camfield, Mohammed Al-Etabi and Ayesha Uddin.  They were full of ideas and enthusiasm in their first meeting, held on Monday 9th November, and we can’t wait to see what they bring to the organisation!
