We are delighted to welcome Dr Dominique Allwood as the new Chief Executive Officer for Imperial College Health Partners (ICHP).

Richard Stubbs, Chair of the Health Innovation Network, said:

“I am thrilled to welcome Dominique to her new role at ICHP, and therefore the wider Health Innovation Network leadership community. No doubt the whole Network will benefit from her wealth of invaluable experience, but especially her vast clinical expertise in population health improvement and public health at this pivotal time where we focus even more of our efforts on prevention and moving people’s care into the community.”

Before joining the Network, Dominique was the Assistant Director for Improvement at the Health Foundation where she led work on anchor institutions and the role of the NHS in improving health.
