About

I am working as a Research Fellow on the The DAPPLE Project: Developing effective service models for Adult Palliative and end-of-life care for People with a Learning disability (NIHR159160).

My main research interests are in the fields of palliative care, learning disability, and communication within health and social care.

Prior to my Research Fellow role, I worked as a Research Associate on the The Victoria and Stuart Project, which was about co-designing a toolkit and resources for end-of-life care planning with people with learning disabilities within social care settings (NIHR202963). I completed a PhD at the UCL Marie Curie Palliative Care Research Department on prognostic decision-making within hospice multidisciplinary teams.
