BIOGRAPHICAL DETAILS OF THE SPEAKERS
DR IONA HEATH
President of the Royal College of General Practitioners
Iona Heath worked as an inner city general practitioner at the Caversham Group Practice in
Kentish Town in London from 1975 until 2010. She has been a nationally elected member of
the Council of the Royal College of General Practitioners since 1989 and chaired the College’s
Committee on Medical Ethics from 1998 to 2004 and the International Committee from 2006 to
2009. She is currently President of the Royal College of General Practitioners having been
elected for a three year term from November 2009.
From 1993 to 2001, she was an editorial adviser for the British Medical Journal and chaired the
journal’s Ethics Committee from 2004 to 2009. She has been a member of the WONCA world
executive since 2007.
She writes regularly for the British Medical Journal and has contributed essays to many other
medical journals across the world. She has been particularly interested to explore the nature of
general practice, the importance of medical generalism, issues of justice and liberty in relation
to health care, the corrosive influence of the medical industrial complex and the
commercialisation of medicine, and the challenges posed by disease-mongering, the care of the
dying, and violence within families.
PIP HARDY & TONY SUMNER
Directors of Patient Voices
Pip Hardy and Tony Sumner are co-directors of Pilgrim Projects Limited, and co-founders of the
Patient Voices Programme, which was established in response to the urgent need for better
communication of all healthcare stakeholders’ experiences of care. Using new technology to
bring the ancient tradition of storytelling to life has offered new possibilities for involving and
engaging patients, carers and service users as well as clinicians and managers, and
empowering them to share their stories.
Patient Voices operates as a social enterprise dedicated to the creation and distribution of these
important stories of health and social care.
The Programme is widely respected as being the only resource of its kind in the world, with
stories being used by, among others, the Chief Medical Officer, and as far away as Hong Kong.
The methodology developed for creating digital stories has been adapted for use as a valid
method of gathering qualitative data and has been used by the National Audit Office, among
others.
