New members to the Face Front Family

We are very excited to announce the arrival of two exceptional supporters to our team: new trustee Mev Bulathsinhala and new Patron Jamie Beddard.

We are thrilled that she has joined our board, and share her thoughts on her recent appointment …

 “I am truly honoured to join the Face Front board of trustees and collaborate with this enthusiastic team. Ever since attending the Bridge Group, I have had the pleasure to witness such incredible displays of inclusivity and creativity. It is great to have a space for the performing arts that focuses on accessibility in Edmonton Green- having grown up here, I feel like Face Front is contributing to a positive impact for people with disabilities, which the community is in need of.”

 “I’m delighted and privileged to be asked to be a Patron of Face Front. My association with the company started 20 years ago, our paths have crossed numerous times since and their brilliant work is as vital as ever. The passing of Co-Founder, Jon French, was a blow to so many, and ensuring the company and his memory continue to thrive is very important to me”.
