Academy Community Pioneer

I'm Samantha O'Donnell, I am the Academy community pioneer for Co-op Academy Oakwood.
I have lived in Gipton for many years and have 4 children that have all attended Co-op Academy Oakwood.
As well as working as Academy Community Pioneer (APC) I am also a Parent Governor, volunteer at our Community fridge and volunteer for another local Charity Organisation, intercepting and distributing surplus food.
As the APC, it's my job to act as a link between the academy and the community, with the aim of bringing people together and helping those in need.
I will be working closely with the school to assist with attendance initiatives, food provision, literacy provision, school events and seeking out funding opportunities.
I am currently working on several Literacy funding bids and I have recently secured several fundraising prizes in order to support the community fridge and attendance team.
Yours co-operatively,
Samantha
