John Jones
John Jones is our Sports Development Officer for Central London, delivering our Getting Ready programme. He joined London Youth in January 2009 following a two year period working for Nacro as Bedford SCORE Project Co-ordinator. He graduated from De Montfort University in 2006 with a 2:1 BA Honours in Sport, Media and Culture.
Working with Nacro and now London Youth he has seen firsthand what can be achieved through sport and what a positive impact it can have on young people and local communities.
He is still actively involved in playing sports, and in the past achieved county honours in rugby, football and squash as well as Welsh School Boy Honours in cricket. Working across so many sports, he has built up various coaching qualifications and enjoys the challenge of working with new young people from across London. Playing sport has taken him to Australia, New Zealand and Canada as well as throughout the United Kingdom. John supports Cardiff City FC.
