Peter Hearn - Founder & trustee

GP (family doctor), Alma Medical Partnership, Bournemouth, UK
"I have had an interest in world development issues since studying biochemistry at Oxford and medicine at Sheffield. The trip to Cameroon was my initial foray into medical work in Africa and I hope the first of many. I feel confident that the model we are setting up here will lead to sustainable local healthcare development, whether this remains on a small local scale or grows bigger."

Glynis Hearn - Founder & Trustee

"My background is in social work and counselling and I currently work with sick children and their families on the Paediatric Unit at Poole Hospital in Dorset UK, I grew up in Africa and am pleased to renew that connection especially in a way that works with the aspirations of the people who live there. Pete and I have 3 'adult' children, all of whom are keen to be involved!"

Dr Alan Eggleston - Trustee; Global Head, Marketing and Sales, Cmed Ltd.

"Like most people, I've been aware at a theoretical level of the healthcare issues in Africa for many years but lacked an avenue to do something about it, so it's been great for me that the drive and enthusiasm of my old friend Peter has provided me an opportunity to contribute in a concrete manner. I hope the skills and connections I've built up over my many years in the pharma industry can be brought to bear to build Spreading Health to even greater success."

Tony Rodger -Retired Businessman & Chartered Engineer

"I have been an enthusiastic supporter of MSF and Practical Action, a smaller UK based equivalent, both of which tend to focus on medical support in disaster areas.   I am delighted to be invited to use my business skills to assist SH in developing its strategic aims and hands-on focus on self help in Cameroon and eventually elsewhere where there is a proven need."
