Helen is an experienced public sector change agent and a founding director of the Ideas Alliance. Previously a frontline worker in the homeless and drugs/alcohol sector, she moved into commissioning at Lambeth Council just as they became co-operative. Whilst there, she gained extensive insight into co-production, collaborative commissioning and community engagement which she still uses today throughout her work at the Ideas Alliance. 

Helen has had the privilege to work alongside some pioneering practitioners in local authorities, health boards, voluntary sector organisations and communities and travels the country inspiring people to question traditional approaches through training, presentations and communities of practice. She is committed to helping people re-think the role of citizens in the commissioning and delivery of public services and helping people flourish, whether they be social workers, residents or Ideas Alliance associates.
