Meet the 2025 Team - Oliver




 Hello, I'm Oliver and I am heading out as a leader of the 2025 Africa team and I am also a Hands at Work Advocate for St Andrew's. This will be my 3rd visit to Hands at Work in South Africa, although I haven't been for 6 years so very much looking forward to returning.

I am a Paediatric Nurse by profession and work in the Emergency Department so am very used to the unexpected and ever changing situations so am very used to the unpredictability of our community visits.
I am most excited to see the changes that have taken place over the past 6 years within our partner community of Mafambisa since my last visit and to see familiar faces that I remember from my other visits and that we have heard about in the blogs over the last few years. I very much looking forward to being able to support these children and care givers throughout our days in community and to see and support new members of our congregation witness these different communities is something I feel very honoured to be apart of.

Look out for more introductions over the next few weeks.
