The Team
Farid Acheka
Farid keeps Under One Sky running smoothly behind the scenes, acting as a key part of the charity’s day-to-day operations.
Since joining in April 2023, he has played a vital role in preparing, packing, and delivering essential supplies for our Skywalk outreach teams. He also manages special requests from our homeless friends, helping ensure they receive the support they need.
Alongside his operational work, Farid regularly joins outreach sessions, building relationships with homeless friends and supporting them through our services. This remains his favourite part of the role.
“The best part of the job is knowing how much you're truly helping people. And that extends beyond those on the streets to every vulnerable person in society.”
Before joining Under One Sky, Farid worked across the automotive, marketing, and sales sectors, bringing strong experience in logistics, coordination, and communication.
Outside of work, he is a keen footballer, organising and playing regular matches in Haggerston Park and Whittington Park. He also enjoys going to the gym and is known for keeping both his football teams and Under One Sky organised behind the scenes.
