I became the Area manager in July 2023 after 2 years as Operations manager for Healthwatch Hammersmith and Fulham. I have enjoyed many roles across the health and social care sector in the UK and in Low-and-Middle-Income Countries, working with people from widely diverse communities. I am extremely passionate about health promotion and strengthening communities so seldom heard voices are listened to in the health sector.  I look forward to working with health and social care services from the Hammersmith and Fulham borough and supporting the voices of the residents in the health services we use.

I became the Project Officer in May 2021 after having volunteered for Healthwatch H&F since the beginning of 2021. I am responsible for leading our Enter & View projects. I have a degree in Sociology and a passion for the charity sector. I previously worked with a charity that works with vulnerable women within the local community.  I am specifically interested in conducting research into health services as I feel that there is still a lot of work to be done to make these services accessible to everyone
