I have always found the CMHP to be an invaluable resource for support and information and am delighted to have the opportunity to be more involved in an organisation which does so much to forward the overall quality of care in mental health.”

CMHP Council member Nikki Holmes said:

"As CMHP Vice President and outgoing Assistant Registrar I'm delighted that Ciara has joined us and taken on this role. Her passion, enthusiasm and humour are very much appreciated and she brings a wealth of experience with her. We also value that she works outside England and so adds diversity to our discussions and work. Ciara will be an asset to CMHP council and we look forward to working with her."
