Josh grew up at Kol Chai synagogue in Hatch End. He went on his first camp in 1996 at the age of 10 and since then has never had a summer or winter without some sort of RSY-Netzer involvement. Despite struggling with the concept of not actually being on Shemesh next summer, Josh is very excited to be working for RSY-Netzer this year.

Gideon is fun, friendly and passionate about RSY Netzer. Gideon enjoys history and politics and has a degree in archaeology from the University of Nottingham. When he is not working hard in the office Gideon enjoys writing music, going to the gym and ‘having fun’. Gideon wants to study counter terrorism in Israel and would like to save the world. His favourite ice cream flavour is cookie dough.

I have the fantastic privilege of working with RSY-Netzer. I have a long history in Jewish education - developing and creating programmes that inspire and excite young people about being Jewish. I was in a youth movement when I was a teen, led Israel Tour when I was a student, made Aliyah at 21 years old and worked with lots of different youth movements in Israel. Now I’m in the UK and love working at the Reform Movement, clearly RSY-Netzer is the best youth movement, with the most amazing people. I've enjoyed being in and part of youth movements - you will too.
Oh and one of the roles I have is to take complaints seriously - so please feel free to tell everyone you know how great RSY-Netzer is, and tell me what you need changed.
