Between 2013 and the end of March 2024, I have been privileged to have served as the Independent Chair of the Governance Board for Health Innovation East Midlands, one of England’s 15 local health innovation networks.

My fixed term of office is about to end and in the next few days HIEM will be announcing the organisation’s new chair, to whom I wish great success – I’m sure they will be as inspired as I have been by the positive impacts achieved by the organisation and the fantastic expertise and commitment of our team.
