Having been in research for the past 13 years in a variety of different roles across the Black Country, I have been passionately committed to increasing the profile of research across the region and creating an NHS culture where learning, research and innovation are a core part of the services that are delivered. 

I have recently taken on the role of Head of Research and Innovation at Shrewsbury and Telford Hospitals NHS Trust and now lead on the Progression Plan Project 5: Engaging with the wider health and care workforce to be research active.
