Nigel Davies

Nigel Davies does most of our administration work and will often be the person you talk to on our office number. Nigel is the "engine room" of iT4Communities - without him we really would be "dead in the water"!

He does all this alongside his other business, gardening, for which combination of jobs he is much envied by some of his more office bound colleagues (except when its cold and wet, of course). In the rest of life, Nigel is a keen filmgoer, a cricket lover and a Manchester City supporter

Anne Donnelly

Anne Donnelly is a freelance Project Definer and she also helped with testing and data migration for the new website system. She is also responsible for the content of the website and for editing our regular newsletters.

Anne has a long IT career – much of it has involved analysis of requirements, often dealing with clients who need to converse in “plain English”, so she is well qualified to assist charities of varying IT-awareness and produce those pithy paragraphs which you will find in our list of volunteer opportunities.

Outside her freelance IT work, Anne also runs a business organising wildlife and bird-watching holidays in Shetland and elsewhere. Outside business, Anne has a wide range of hobbies including football, classic cars, needlework and wildlife watching. She also volunteers her time with the RNIB helping visually-impaired people make the best use of their computer equipment.

Peter Munro

Peter Munro is a freelance Project Definer. Although initially trained in accountancy, he moved into IT, and his expertise covers all aspects of the application life cycle from the vision and business justification, through design, development and implementation, to support and enhancement, and has lots of experience in negotiating contracts with suppliers.

Peter has worked in the private, public, and voluntary sectors, and his accountancy, business, and technical experience enables him to establish quickly a rapport with users.

Outside work, Peter provides his financial, project management and IT expertise to a variety of charities, and finds time for Scottish country dancing and research into family and social history. He is a director of Scottish Borders Social Enterprise Chamber.

Anne Stafford

Anne Stafford joined iT4C as a Development Consultant in December 2005, and is now Deputy Programme Director.

Before joining iT4C, she ran a project based in the Big Issue in Brighton for 3 years, offering access to the Internet and computers for people who are homeless. She ran and organised web design, film making and music making courses as well as basic computing and Internet skills, literacy courses and job/training searching opportunities. This much acclaimed project would not have been possible without the support of a team of technical volunteers.

During this time Anne also designed and ran IT courses for the community and voluntary groups in Brighton. She worked with local groups to help with IT planning and hands on technical support.

Anne's specialist knowledge and experience is managing public access Internet spaces on a low budget with a team of volunteers.

Originally setting off on a financial services career, Anne became an 'accidental techie' whilst working as an office manager and when volunteering. Taking a liking to the problem solving aspect of technology her career side-stepped in the early '90s into web development and e-learning.

Having spent 3 years working for an e-learning company during which time Anne studied for a Masters in Information Systems, Anne has a good understanding of the corporate side of IT as well as its applications for the 3rd sector.
