I am an experienced mental health nurse and an academic, currently I am the Subject Head for Allied Health at the School of Nursing and Allied Health. I am also the centre lead for the centre for collaborative innovation in dementia (Living Lab), which is European Network of Living Labs Accredited.

In addition I am involved in a lead role with a European funded project called Innovate Dementia; it is a three year project which started on the 1st April 2012. In essence LJMU are working with a local mental health trust, as a UK partnership, in collaboration with European partners from the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany, to explore ways of developing innovative approaches to dementia care.
