Health Innovation

We have worked with medical and health professionals to help them communicate and undertake complex communications projects, either better connecting with patients and other healthcare professionals, or just using digital media effectively.

From 2001 to 2003 I led the development of the GOSH Child Health Portal for the NHS.
