Over the years, I have worked within Statutory (UK, NHS, Social Services), Voluntary and the Private Sector, as well as internationally, with governments, including the UK, Barbados and other Caribbean countries. I have also worked with organisations such as UNICEF, and as a Master Trainer with John Hopkins University (HIV counselling and testing in the Caribbean).

I was responsible for setting up one of the largest ‘Exercise on Prescription’ scheme linked to GP surgeries in the UK, and also led on the development and implementation of a National ‘Voluntary Counselling and HIV Testing Service’ across Barbados.
