About me

I am a recently retired GP, but still on the medical register. I specialised in helping those with mental health difficulties and was awarded an MBE for this in 2000 I founded a CIC called Your Planet Doctors( YPD) in 2021, in order to bring together marginalised communities through growing their own food within their neighbourhoods and from their own homes. My vision was to address both poor mental health, food insufficiency and self resilience. YPD are now trialling CEA in Bournemouth Food bank in order to provide nutrient dense food to their members.
