Our People
PartnershipProjects was formed by Dr Peter Jakob in 2006. Dr Jakob pioneered the introduction of Non Violent Resistance (NVR) in the UK. Since then, the organisation has grown and developed (just as NVR has) and is now led by three directors: Rachael Aylmer, Jackie Lindeck and Gabrielle Stirling, whilst Peter Jakob still plays a vital role in the organisation as Clinical Director.
