ĢtvƵ Hospitals Charity welcomes two new Trustees to the Board: an experienced management consultant and a tech entrepreneur.
Charlene Lyons joined the team after leaving her position as CEO of Black Sheep Brewery where she worked for nearly nine years. Charlene runs her own management consultancy business, supporting firms with strategy, business transformation and restructuring. She is also Vice Chair of Governors at The Grammar School at ĢtvƵ.
Charlene said “The NHS is an organisation very close to my heart and I’m incredibly proud to be joining the Board of Trustees at ĢtvƵ Hospitals Charity”.
Fellow new Trustee Lalit Suryawanshi also joined the board in August. Lalit is co-founder of digital health company Itecho Health. He has technology and digital transformation experience in many businesses across retail, health care and technology consulting.
Lalit joined the charity because he is passionate about how technology and innovation can change people’s lives in a meaningful way.
Chair of the Board Dr Yvette Oade said, “I’m delighted to welcome both Charlene and Lalit to the ĢtvƵ Hospitals Charity Board of Trustees, they will be a fantastic addition to our team. Both Trustees bring a wealth of business experience to the charity and will help to bring a fresh prospective on how we can do even more to help patients, families and staff at ĢtvƵ Teaching Hospitals.”
