Staff Event 2016
Last Tuesday night Legadel held its annual staff event. This much-anticipated evening is a great opportunity for Legadel to show its appreciation to all its dedicated staff members. Legadel’sstaff includes both professional therapists of all sorts – speech therapists, occupational therapist, physiotherapists, and specialists in literacy, numeracy and kriah – key workers, who sit in on all the sessions and carry out the child’s targets during the week, as well as office staff. They come from a wide spectrum of the community and beyond, but they all have one thing in common: their care and dedication to the children with whom they work with.
Legadel wanted to give something back to the people who make the organisation what it is. Last week’s informal evening enabled everyone to relax and chat with each other whilst enjoying a fabulous meal sponsored by Reich’s Catering. The staff were welcomed to the evening by Sharonie Melavsky who manages Legadel. Mr. Aryeh Melinek, chair of trustees, thanked all the team for their incredible dedication to the organisation, before introducing Rabbi Dr. David Roth, who was instrumental in helping to set up Legadel four years ago, to share some words of inspiration.
Legadel now supports nine schools and, with its dedicated staff body and trustee team, it hopes to continue to grow and support all those schools who would like to work together with them.
