Laura brings 28 years of healthcare experience to her current NHS England role of Quality Improvement Programme Lead.
Her deep passion for palliative and end of life care and the ‘person in the patient’ was ignited during her student nurse training in the 1980’s. Having held many clinical and healthcare leadership roles, including executive director of a palliative care community interest company, Laura is currently relishing the challenge of working with others including the National Clinical Director for End of Life Care to help realise England’s Ambitions for Palliative and End of Life Care http://endoflifecareambitions.org.uk/
An advocate of inclusion, empowering and mobilising others through the power of ‘human’ leadership, Laura also confesses to peddling courage and compassion at every opportunity; practicing both coaching and leadership mentoring.
Laura is a graduate of the Nye Bevan Programme – Leading Care III, NHS Leadership Academy, the School for Health and Care Radicals, and an alumna of Saïd Business School, Oxford and Birmingham Universities.
