We are always in receipt of fantastic feedback from our candidates after their sessions with Alix, stating that she makes the literature and training interesting and engaging.
Health Talks delivers bespoke training and consultancy packages to a variety of organisations in the public, private and voluntary sectors. The company was established to provide high quality, affordable training – previously only available from statutory services – and all our facilitators are qualified public health and mental health practitioners.
Health Talks’ Director, Alix Sheppard, has over 20 years of experience working in public health with organisations including the NHS, Health Education England, the Faculty of Public Health, Royal Society for Public Health and local authorities. A UKPHR registered Public Health Practitioner (PR0322), she leads on the development of public health practitioners in the East of England, North West and The Midlands and recognises the importance of a highly skilled, registered workforce to reduce health inequalities.
Alix was a lead in the founding team for Youth Health Champions and Community Health Champions in Essex, helped to develop the qualifications to support the roles and is a keen advocate of a career in public health. Several of the original Youth Health Champions from the early programmes are now enjoying successful careers in public health and social care as a result of being involved in the YHC programme.
