Fiona has three long-term health conditions and this has meant multiple hospital stays.

She has experienced the vulnerability and loneliness of being in a hospital and this is all the more heart breaking at the end of life. She uses her experiences to help healthcare organisations deliver better care for patients, carers and families.

Fiona has held board-level advisory positions in the NHS and academia for almost 10 years. Fiona grew up in New Zealand and now lives in Roehampton with her husband Tim.
