There are four governors in Oldham representing you. You can find out more about them below or contact them by emailing pcn-tr.ftmembership.penninecare1@nhs.net.
I am pleased to represent the community of Oldham and offer myself in further enhancing service level. My qualification and experience will certainly help in value creation for the community.
I am a chartered accountant and chartered public finance accountant (UK) and I have rich experience in problem solving, risk management, internal controls, audit, corporate governance, digital solutions, and human resource management.
In addition to my work experience over more than 33 years, I remained engaged with organizations rendering philanthropic work and health care. During university I had been a regular blood donor to vitally important patients suffering from thalassmenia. Donate funds to Cancer Research hospital providing free cancer treatment to people in need.
Since Sept 2021, I‘ve moved to Oldham and been looking for an organisation to continue my aims and objectives for community services; which mobilises resources in the best possible way, chalks out strategy for effectively tackling the felt needs, problems and arouses interest among people in the welfare of community as a whole.
I’m a quick leaner with “can do attitude” and can speak English, Urdu and Punjabi. I have experience in dealing with people suffering from covid, autism and schizophrenia.
To me the road to a SMART future for the greater good is arduous but reachable when we are determined to apply our collective wisdom.
I'm a dedicated business owner and registered care manager, providing exceptional home care services in Oldham. With a background as a teacher in Health and Social Care, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the role. Born and raised in Oldham, I am deeply connected to the community and actively support local charities such as Maggies and Dr Kershaw. Additionally, I serve as a local governor at a primary school.
I am committed to making a positive impact in the community. With effective communication skills and a people-centric approach, I aim to represent the local community's viewpoints and ensure their voices are heard. I'm passionate about making a difference and dedicated to supporting and advocating for the local people.
Bio coming soon.
Representing Oldham as a public governor is an important opportunity for me to support local voices. As a lifelong Oldham resident and experienced care professional, I am committed to helping support high-quality mental health and learning disability services for our community.
I believe compassionate, person-centred healthcare is a fundamental right. I am particularly passionate about mental wellbeing for older people and about improving the way mental health and social care services work together.
I bring over 40 years’ administrative experience, including 20 years in dementia care, and currently support 14 nursing and residential care homes as Head Office Manager. My work with social care and NHS services has given me a practical understanding of the challenges within the system, as well as the importance of accessible, responsive and high-quality care.
As a governor, I hope to gain a deeper understanding of decision-making within the Trust while contributing to positive change. I am confident in asking questions, offering constructive challenge and supporting balanced, informed decisions.
I am organised, approachable and a good listener, and I will work hard to represent the views of service users, families, staff, and members fairly and without bias.
