| Scott Fraser | Community Learning and Development Worker |
The official cheapskate version of post.... without picture! |
Alright? Hi everyone, Before I started working as a CLDW. I was fortunate enough to be part of the embrionic stages at Cafe K. Indeed, though cultivating this project I have seen it grow and develop at a rate which suits the young people we work with and the community centre. Interesting part: I was one of the last YTS trainees earning £25.00 per week so thanks Maggie Thatcher for the foot up! (Sarcasm is one of my strong points!). |
| Sam Feichney | Trainee Youth Worker |
 |
I got involved in the Jack Kane Centre Management Committee so that I could give my feeling on how the clubs are run and hopefully my feelings will change the centre and now I am a trainee youth working on a Friday at Café K. I don’t think the centre needs to be changed all that much, but I would just like to develop it more. The way I would like to change it is by getting views from young people my age on the club and giving the young peoples views to the committee and hopefully things will change.

| Peter Scott | Sessional youth worker (Drama) |

This director extraordinaire has a hidden cache of knowledge in drama including a compendium of games from A-Z. Improvisation and scripted pieces a speciality! A true thespian in various disguises from playing the baddy in many roles, the king in others to Baloo in Jungle Book, recently a cheeky girl and many many more!! So get in contact and he will take you to your path! |
| Fran Nothard | Sessional youth worker (Drama) |
 |
Hi
my name is Fran and I work alongside Pete, the ‘director
extraordinaire’. I’m probably considered the sane
one, but have been known to ham it up as an ugly sister! When
I’ve got time I love to write scripts for shows and enjoy
watching the drama group bringing them to life. I love singing
and think of myself as a bit of a karaoke queen! I’m also
a massive fan of Meat Loaf, he’s the best!! |
