Five University of Aberdeen employees have been named Community Stars by the Lord Provost of Aberdeen.
In recognition of their significant contributions to the city, our University colleagues Fiona Clark, Sonia Domingo, Jerry Morse, Mark Paterson and Israel Osofero, were invited to join Aberdeen’s Christmas Parade last week; a celebration that brings thousands of people together to see the city centre sparkle with the switch on of the Christmas lights. The Community Star celebrations continued after the parade with a civic reception in the Town House.
Our University colleagues were recognised for the following:
Fiona Clark – Accounts Payable Assistant, Finance For her contribution to the Scouting movement and Children’s Panel
Sonia Domingo, Hispanic StudiesFor her work on the Language Ambassadors programme
Jerry Morse, Clinical Skills Centre Manager For his contribution to the Scouting movement and teaching basic life support (CPR) to various groups
Mark Paterson, Curator, Cruickshank Gardens For his outreach and engagement work with the wider community, particularly refugees
Israel Osofero, EngineeringFor his achievements in his Outreach Co-ordinator role in the School of Engineering
A huge congratulations to our Community Stars from all your colleagues at the University of Aberdeen.
