SHARING IDEAS

I was co-founder of Netmums and a Director for 14 years. During that time we found new ways to support parents and ensure their voices were heard by Government.

As the Founding Chair of the Institute of Health Visiting I have seen the importance of positive, professional leadership in an essential profession.

Based on personal experiences, I have an interest in developing insights and finding new ways to support people.

I hope that some elements make a contribution to helping professionals work more effectively, through use of both local and digital communities.

WHO AM I ?

These are the surveys, reports and tools that I have been involved in creating over recent years.

I hope that some of them may be of use to others, so please browse and borrow from my online library.
