Vlad
Head of Service
I live in north east London, with my partner and two pets, Ash, a Maine coon and Kenji, a Shar Pei. I love finding the best in people and continuously learning. I am passionate about workplace inclusion, equity, preventative health and wellbeing interventions. I am particularly passionate about good mental health at work, where the workplace can empower the individual to reach their potential.
Jo
Strategic Communications and Engagement Lead
I live in east London with my wonderful husband, three cats and bouncy puppy Plum. I have two grown up children who make me proud every day. I am an avid Arsenal fan and spent many rainy midweek evenings at Highbury with my son, who was lucky enough to have football training there as a child. I am passionate about wellbeing, genuine inclusion and co-producing culturally competent communications.
Maria
Social Care Sector Wellbeing Transformation Lead
My personal passion and purpose are my commitment to my own wellbeing and the wellbeing of others. I believe wellbeing is personal to each and every one of us. I love the magic of connection and place a great importance on listening to the needs of others. I love that the Keeping WellNEL team are here to wholeheartedly listen with the aim of a personalised person-centred approach to support wellbeing.
Tony
Clinical Lead
I am keen to help people find the right help at the right time. I am a Dad to two girls, both in secondary school now. I have lots of interests including; going to the cinema, listening to music and going to gigs and festivals. I have been learning to play the guitar all my life - hopefully making some progress (if very slowly)… and have two cats, Ziggy and Otto.
Thulasi
Clinical Lead
I am passionate about managers and leaders having the right training and the right support in order to realise their potential and bring their teams up with them. I am interested in how we cultivate inclusive leadership (especially having diverse representation at senior leadership levels) and inclusive work cultures that really invite, celebrate and support diversity of thinking and being.
Sarah
Clinical Lead
I am passionate about helping others to increase their sense of wellbeing. Being able to build a better sense of wellbeing leads to a sense of freedom that I believe we all need. Music is another passion of mine, my favourite genres are Neo Soul, Kompa, Zouk and Gospel. I also play very basic piano and will one day learn to play the guitar.
Gloria

I love travelling and meeting people. My best moment is when I put smile on someone's face. I believe that we are all one despite our backgrounds, so I care for all. Remember that your health matters.
Sacha
Communications and Engagement Manager
I live in north London with my brother and dog, Dougie. I spend a lot of my time watching YouTube videos, drinking iced coffees, and asking Dougie to stop barking. I am committed to implementing equity and amplifying unheard voices and passionate about improving the opportunities, experiences, and the wellbeing of people who are often not considered.
Toni

I like being as active as possible as often as I can. I am always looking to develop and learn new things and am currently learning Spanish, French and doing a course in advanced motorcycling riding.

I am obsessed with mechanical watchmaking and fast becoming a budding watch collector.

I enjoy travelling, reading a good book and spending time with my family. Shopping and bubble tea are my guilty pleasures, but then, who doesn't like them?
Alice

I live in Hampshire with my partner and our pond resident Ned the newt. My favourite place is the seaside, relaxing to the sound of the waves with a good book and swimming in the sea. I have always been creative, making jewellery and cards from a young age. I hope to use my creativity to help raise awareness around staff wellbeing.
Jessica

I live by the seaside with my partner. I make sure I go for at least one walk every day and that I make time for myself. I come from a big family, and love spending time with them all. I am interested in project management and bringing in new ways of working. I love baking, exploring new places and learning new things.

I am from Somali and grew up in Holland until the age of 12, when I moved to America. After university, I decided to move to Europe to support my mother and be with her as she struggles with her mental health. I enjoy dancing, trying different food and spending time with loved ones. I am an advocate for social justice and I am most interested in making sure therapy is accessible for racially minoritised groups.
