EMPLOYER'S PAGE: BEYOND TICK-BOX EXERCISES

Support for employers, public bodies, health services, universities, charities, and community organisations is essential in creating systems designed for disabled and chronically ill people, rather than as an afterthought. My work is informed by lived experience, postgraduate research, and governance experience within the systems I advise on.

Lead services

**Patient & Service-User Accessibility Review**

For NHS Trusts, Combined Authorities, and other public bodies wanting to know if their services are truly accessible for disabled individuals who utilize them, as opposed to just focusing on their staff. This review assesses complaints and feedback routes, communication formats, physical and digital access, and whether feedback from disabled service-users genuinely reaches decision-makers.

Board & Governance Disability Literacy Training

For boards, governing bodies, and senior committees looking for impactful disability literacy rather than generic presentations. This training is rooted in governance experience, developed from my own experience in occupying those roles, and emphasizes disability as a governance concern, helping leaders ask insightful questions of their executive teams and data.

Additional support

How work with organisations is described

I provide an honest evaluation of where your organisation currently stands, practical advice on where it needs to head, and support that focuses on disabled and chronically ill people from the outset, not as a retrofit. This encompasses hybrid and housebound inclusion, service design, and collaboration across health, public sector, academic, and organisational settings.

If your organisation's work involves disabled people, individuals with chronic illness, patients, service users, staff, or the community, let's discuss how we can enhance community engagement and what support could look like.
