Sara Dziadik

Programme Coordinator

Shape Arts

Sara works full time at Shape but only part of that time on Unlimited. She is our lead on access – ensuring the artists’ access needs are met, that the work produced is as accessible as possible within the aesthetics that the artist is working to, and ensuring that any public events we hold have access at their core. She also manages all the filming logistics for the programme and manages the Shape side of our International work which includes Extend – the creation of our international resources and also managing our international placement programme. She holds strategic responsibility for visual arts across the portfolio and is a key contact for some artists.

She holds overall responsibility for artists development and showcasing, and for managing the Artsadmin side of our International work. She is also responsible for inducting us all on our online tools and helping us when we get stuck.

Unlimited Trainee

Sonny works full time at Artsadmin on Unlimited. He is one of our trainees, learning about the programme by getting hands on. He has great data management skills that we are utilising and keeps an eye out for relevant dance connections for us, that being one of his main passions. Sonny is a key contact for some artists.

Fiona Slater

Programme Coordinator

Shape Arts

Fiona works full-time at Shape and part-time on Unlimited. She has lead responsibility for our work with emerging artists and for communicating with Spirit of 2012 who fund that strand of work. She is our green champion – looking at ways for us to improve our ecological impact and sustainability. She also manages our ‘gaps’ – areas that are underrepresented in our work and builds new partnerships and projects to redress this (currently this includes work for audiences with complex access needs, work by artists of colour and LBGTQIA+). Fiona holds our international travel budget for the team and Unlimited alumni and is a key contact for some artists.

Isabella has shoulder length blonde hair. She is looking to the side smiling. She is wearing a black top and an Unlimited lanyard.

Jo Verrent

Senior Producer

Jo leads on the delivery of Unlimited full time, maintaining the workflow of the team and managing the impact the work has both at home and abroad.
