I am a senior qualitative researcher and NIHR NENC ARC research fellow with special interest in exploring the experiences of people with dementia, their carers and health and social care professionals, in relation to improving healthcare and service provision. This research included care and support from pre-diagnosis through to end of life care in a range of settings including the community, primary care, respite care, care homes and hospital settings.

I support approaches to dementia, care and research which recognise the rights, values, wishes and abilities of people with dementia. In particular I am passionate about supporting people living with dementia from underserved communities through novel service provision such as through football clubs and organisations. I have research expertise in the use of co-design methods and ethnographic methods (observations and interviews).

 My work also considers using innovative and accessible ways of sharing research findings with the wider public.
