Introducing the team…
Sam joined the Open Centre in September 2015, after developing the desire for a new challenge, leading on from her career in education. She has already increased the capacity of the Open Centre over the last few years by recruiting more staff, increasing footfall and the number of services we provide but Sam is always searching for new innovative ways we can take our work further. Her most recent project was to develop a range of online services and resource boxes for clients to use during the pandemic and afterwards.
Sabina joined the Open Centre in 2019, when the Open Centre started to reach capacity with how much administrative work we could fit in within one day! She is the first person you will speak to when you call us and she will ensure all your booking information is in hand, with her efficient office skills.
“I started working at the Open Centre in 2018, combining this one with a variety of other jobs. Born in a Punjabi family, I went through a rapid change in 2013 and since then I have been practising and living as a Khalsa Sikh. In 2018 I took part in a special ceremony (Amrit) and became a Amritdhari Khalsa Sikh, which is bringing many more different and exciting changes overall, in work and personal life.” Jasvir now helps to lead on our online work through filming, editing and updating all our online services as well as our online presence through social media.
“ Born and raised in Lahore, Pakistan, I came to England in 2006 as a student and Graduated at Sheffield Hallam University with a Diploma In Psychology . My local place of worship is the Derby Jamia Mosque. I started working with The Open Centre in September 2022 leading the faith tours at the Mosque and cultural and Islamic based workshops. Currently I am also working as a teaching assistant with SEN children.
Simran Kaur began working for the Open Centre in 2023. She is a member of the Sikh community and often leads sessions around Sikhi.
“Born and raised in Derby, I have been a member of the Baptist Church the Open Centre is attached to for over 30 years. As a Christian, a Baptist and a retired English teacher I am very pleased to be part of the team.”
Salina joined the Open Centre in Autumn 2023, after hearing about our work through a friend. Salina is one of our Muslim sessional workers and leads visits to the Mosque and supports colleagues at other venues.
“I am excited to be involved with Open Centre as I am a firm believer in the value of the work. I come from the East End of London and am very fond of Derbyshire where I live with my family. I work with adults with learning disabilities and have a love of history. ‘The more you know, the less you know’…Keep questioning!..Keen to learn more…”
