Helen Cherry

Helen has been involved with KIS since 2015, contributing to various forums, events, projects, reports and operational team meetings. Helen is a former nurse with specialist experience in community health, in the UK and overseas. Like many who become involved in PPI work, it is as a result of personal incidents that she became involved in opportunities to improve services to benefit identified needs. Helen has a ‘Library of Lived Experiences’ to draw from being deaf, a patient and a carer enabling her to share insights and mixed skills in NHS PPI initiatives and with other health and educational organisations. She has a particular interest in co-partnership and co-productive working, inclusive accessible communication, including digital health, and remote consultations and current research projects for improving public health.
