Public Governor for Rest of Greater Manchester

Although I’m now retired, I do have over 40 years’ experience of working for the NHS, including as a physiotherapist and as a physiotherapy educator.

From my previous time in office as an MFT Governor, I feel I have gained a wide range of knowledge including, the Trust’s commitment of everyone receiving high quality care, the value of the services provided by the Trust to the community, and the vital work of the staff at MFT.

In my current tenure as a Governor, I plan on supporting the Trust in putting the needs of the public and community at the forefront of its plans, seeking appropriate assurances from the board to support positive health outcomes and address health inequalities during the Trust’s future planning processes.  The upholding of MFT’s values, alongside maintaining high standards of care and whether they reflective of the needs of both the public and the staff of this Trust are other key areas for me as an MFT Governor.
