About us Meet the team Meet the team Chief Executive Rachel Power “I’m hugely excited to have joined the Patients Association at such a critical time for everyone who needs, or will need, health and social care. With an ageing population, the challenges of Brexit, an unsustainable funding settlement and the pressing need for a thorough transformation of how we deliver health and social care, the need to ensure the voices of patients and services users are heard loud and clear has never been greater. "I look forward to continuing the Association’s strong history of a willingness to speak up on behalf of patients and service users when necessary. I am determined to look closely at the issues where we can make the most difference and develop evidence-based policy with rigour, as well as working constructively with other leading organisations in the sector. I know that my deep passion for empowering others will focus me in my new role, alongside my core values of inclusion, compassion and justice.” Office team Heather Eardley – Head of Projects and Partnerships Mehdi Juma - Communications and Marketing Manager John Kell – Head of Policy Abdullah Mahmood – Operations and Projects Co-ordinator Sarah Reilly – Head of Income Generation Please email [email protected] if you have any queries.
