I became an Appointed Governor representing Adult Community services in 2018. 

Greenwich and Bexley Community Hospice has had appointed governor representation on Oxleas' Council of Governors since 2018.

I am a registrered general nurse (RGN) and a district nurse (DN).

I am Chief Executive of Greenwich & Bexley Community Hospice.

I have experience of community nursing, palliative and end of life care, commissioning, strategy, charity management, workforce development.

Why I became a Governor

I am a partnership governor and was asked to join to represent the Hospice.
