Job Title: Office administrator and volunteer coordinator

Nanssi had over twenty years of experience in local government before joining us at Catbytes in 2022. This experience included working on homelessness, project management and IT staff support roles. Digital exclusion has been her focus for the past five years.

John has worked in computing from 1972 until retirement, in an interesting series of very different roles. He headed the applied research team at a London university which developed new Internet and information management technologies, and has advised local councils and national government agencies on using IT effectively. He has taught computing to undergraduates, school teachers, day-release plumbers and members of Parliament. After retiring from most paid work, as well as volunteering for Catbytes as a board member and a digital buddy, he is a governor at two schools, a trustee of charities focusing on road safety and computer history, an elected councillor in Lewisham, and he runs a CodeClub for children at a local primary school.
