CENTRE NEWS

We are thrilled that the Centre is experiencing a time of unprecedented growth in the demand for its services and the Trustees met recently to consider how best to respond to all the changes. Jonathan will remain as Director but will be stepping back from the day-to-day running of the Centre, allowing him to focus on his main role as Plymouth Schools Adviser for RE & Community Cohesion and Linda will continue in her role as administrative support for this work. In the short term, Bev Smerdon, our administrator since November, will be taking up a new role as Development Officer and we are currently advertising for a new administrator to work alongside the rest of the team. If you know of anyone who might be interested in this post, please pass on a copy of the advertisement below. All these arrangements will be reviewed at the end of the year when we expect to be able to take a longer term view of future staffing requirements.
As you will see from the Diary we have arranged a series of opportunities to meet our “Community of Different Faiths”. These occasions enable us to further our own understanding of the different faiths and cultures across the city and perhaps, in true interfaith style, by understanding someone else’s faith and belief we may develop a stronger and more open sense of our own. In addition, the Centre will also have its own Open Evening on Wednesday 10 June (see separate sheet for full details). We hope this will be an opportunity to catch up with old friends and also meet new friends and potential volunteers to help with the further development of our work.
