MEET THE TEAM

ANEIRA

Co-initiator, Content & Facilitation

I am very grateful to have been part of the TTP team since the beginning and, honestly, I have never worked with more incredible people. I love writing content, facilitating sessions and just generally chewing over how we can shape the world we want and need. It's been a wonderful journey so far and I know this is just the start...

GREG

Co-initiator, Content, Futures & Facilitation

I was lucky enough to be around when TTP was born. I’ve been helping shape the content of the course, running workshops, connecting with other groups and organisations and generally scratching my head about how we might actually build a new democratic society in the UK and around the world from the bottom up. Some little scribblings on that here and here. 

JOHNNY

Internal Coordinator, Comms, Hive Care

Before joining TTP, I was an IT Project Manager for an oil company but have pledged myself to a lifetime of community service as penance. I co-founded a social enterprise which aimed to help children overcome learning difficulties and now support the coordination of this team. I have lived in Croydon for 25 years and am helping it to become one of Europe’s most popular tourist destinations.

MARY

Finance and Fundraising, Wellbeing, Welcome

I have a campaigning and legal background, and joined the TTP team in October 2020. I found myself in a team of such amazing, resourceful, caring people. The energy is wonderful. It’s such an important project. I initially took on the role of Internal Coordinator and now help with finance and fundraising, and with welcoming new people into the team.

PAUL

Content, Facilitator

I am a freelance democracy facilitator and have been involved with TTP from the beginning. I contribute where I can with designing and running workshops and being part of this amazing team of volunteers. Previously I have developed a community discussion platform called Thinking Box. I spend most of my time trying to work out how to transform our outdated democratic system and also climb mountains.

STEPHEN

Facilitator

I joined TTP after enjoying being a participant in one of their sessions. I have learned to facilitate meetings, and help to present workshops. I also contribute my ideas to meetings.

KERRY

Content & Faciliation

I signed up to Trust the People during the first lockdown, right about the same time I was discovering my own community on the Ormeau road in Belfast. I joined the first course as a participant and loved it so much, as much for the inspiration as for the fabulous friendly bunch of people, that I signed up to the content team and helped deliver some of the last course.

DANIELA

Comms, Tech

I’m a Romanian living in London with an education and work experience in IT but extremely passionate about challenging the status quo of our current society, democracy, all related to the climate crisis we are currently in. I joined TTP at the beginning of 2021 supporting mostly technical aspects and my goal is to get more involved in facilitation and to learn as much as possible from the wonderful TTP team.

ERICA

Course graduate, Comms

I joined the wonderful TTP Team after completing the TTP course in April 2021 and I contribute to the newsletter, website and technical support. I am very passionate about changing the existing democratic system (where I do not feel represented), and saving the biodiversity of this wonderful planet of ours. When I am not working in Technology, or trying to change the world, I do yoga and meditate (a lot!).

MILLIE

Website, Video Editing

I joined TTP in the first months of the pandemic as part of the promotions team. Since then, I have been empowered by this wonderful family of people to have a voice as a citizen and to believe that people really are the answer to the crises we face. As one of the youngest people in the team, I feel I have as much of a say as anyone else.
