Alice Britton
Paediatric Palliative Care Network Manager
I joined the Paediatric Palliative Care Network in July 2023, after being part of the West Midlands Children’s Network team for my final placement on the NHS Graduate Management Training Scheme.
Before joining the Networks, my first placement on the scheme was as an Assistant Service Manager in the Surgery Division at Birmingham Children’s Hospital. This gave me a solid grounding in the operational pressures facing clinical services and how that impacts patients and their families, which has helped inform how I perceive the role of networks, and how they can best help staff and patients.
I am passionate about including children, young people and their families in the work we do, and how by doing so, we can understand and tackle health inequalities. I look forward to supporting the networks to involve patients and families in their work.
