I'm a registered nurse with over 44 years’ experience. The primary focus of those years has been under the umbrella of long term conditions with particular interest in multiple sclerosis, spinal injury, rheumatological conditions and lymphoedema.

Having worked as a clinician with NHS 111, I'm familiar with telephone consultation and continue to enjoy my role with the AXA 24/7 health support line, offering medical information and supporting members in any way I possibly can.

When not working, I'm busy looking after my family and my two golden retrievers - Hollie and Ivy. Living near the coast and countryside, I enjoy long leisurely walks with them. I have a passion for music of many genres and will dance to just about anything!
