- Profile
-
I am an early career researcher in the Health and Care Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Unit. Currently, I am an embedded researcher working on the Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprise (VCSE) Workforce study funded by the NIHR Health and Social Care Delivery Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Programme. The study aims to identify, design, and implement professional support interventions using participatory, multi-case action research with VCSE organisations.
Previously, I undertook a PhD in public health funded by the White Rose ARC Doctoral Cohort. My thesis evaluated School Streets, a traffic restriction intervention, as a method to improve air quality, active travel and children’s safety and independence. I was also a Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Assistant for the Born in Bradford Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Program at the Bradford Institute for Health Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ.
