John Nolan, City Lions Programme Manager
John has over thirty years of experience developing and delivering youth, education, and community programmes. John experienced in leading on, partnership building, policy development and organisational transformation.
He believes, sometimes we can make the impossible happen.
John really enjoys bringing adventure into learning whether it’s leading groups on 8-day mountain bike expeditions through the mountains creating opportunities to seek positive change in one’s life. That is why he has lot of hobbies: swimming & diving, long walks, nice food and great music.
As Alice in Wonderland might have said: "Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast", he likes embracing imagination, curiosity, and a mindset that challenges what is considered possible, he finds it so freeing and enjoyable!
John would ask every young person he meet: “What do you need & how can I help you connect better?"
John’s passion is to make sure that every young person has the opportunity to make the world a better, more entertaining and creative place.
