- Profile
-
I joined the Clinical Trials Research Unit in July 2019 as a Research Assistant. I completed a BSc in Psychology, and an MSc in Health Psychology at the University of Manchester in 2015 and 2016, respectively. I previously worked as a Health and Wellbeing Coach for a housing association delivering focussed, one-to-one mental health and employment support. I have also worked as a Social Prescribing Advisor which involved working alongside primary care services, and supporting patients with non-medical needs. I also have experience as a Community Research Assistant for a charity which involved collecting, analysing and reporting patients views and experiences of health and social care services.
