PHILLIP ANLEY
After over twenty years of full time teaching, Phillip now provides learning experiences through his company, Flickernet Ltd.
Phillip delivers a range of grant-funded projects that seek to meet the needs of underprivileged young people. As a Christian, Phillip seeks to respond to the grace and blessing that he has experienced, by providing opportunities for young people who need to find peace in their lives.
Currently Phillip is leading the InFindingOut initiative, which connects the Space To Learn facility in the Mountains of Mourne, Northern Ireland to a network of schools and organisations in England.
Phillip feels privileged to support The Door. He does this with the central aim of helping the team to reveal to every young person with whom they work, just how significant they really are.
