JLGB has been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember. Through weekly groups, camps, and training weekends, I’ve formed lifelong friendships and developed so many valuable skills. JLGB has played a pivotal role in shaping my confidence, nurturing my Jewish identity, and inspiring a passion for giving back to the community.

Working for JLGB is truly meaningful because it's an organisation that has had a huge impact on my life. Being able to give back to a charity that helped shape who I am feels both inspiring and rewarding. My role allows me to be creative, connect with young people, and help inspire the next generation while contributing to unforgettable experiences and lifelong memories.

One of my proudest and most memorable JLGB moments was leading the Young Leaders Weekend in 2024. I had the privilege of planning and coordinating the entire event in collaboration with my activities and entertainment team. Watching the Young Leaders fully engage, have fun, and thrive without any added pressures was an incredibly fulfilling experience and a true highlight of my JLGB journey.

In my role as Communications and Marketing Administrator at JLGB, I focus on creating engaging social media content – especially through video editing. I love bringing our events and programmes to life online, helping to excite and inspire our followers. This role gives me the chance to embrace my creativity every day and showcase the amazing things happening across JLGB!
