Hello, I'm Cath, and I joined NHS Elect in October 2022.

With over 20 years in the NHS across primary care, acute hospitals, mental health, and integrated care systems, I specialize in enhancing the skills and confidence of NHS staff. I am an Improvement Advisor (Institute for Health Improvement) and an Organizational Development Practitioner (Roffey Park Institute) with accreditations in mentoring, MBTI Step 1, and 360-degree feedback facilitation.

My facilitation expertise includes training in Practical Facilitation Skills (Roffey Park) and Liberating Structures (Q Community, Health Foundation), as well as experience in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for workplace applications.

Recent Highlights:

- Improvement Advisor at East London NHS Foundation Trust (ELFT) during COVID-19, advancing Quality Improvement practices and coaching, with virtual workshops for over 250 staff and service users.

- Organizational Development Manager at Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust, focusing on values, staff engagement, and team-based initiatives, and speaker at NHS Do OD conferences.

How I Can Help:

- Quality Improvement: capacity building, strategy development, and service user engagement, with a passion for nurturing QI coaches

- Facilitation & Workshop Design

- Personal Development: mentoring through London and South East Leadership Academies
