We rely on collaborative working because communication is for all

In 2005 Heather took on the challenge to travel and experience working in other countries and gain even more experience which on her return eventually led her to join Ludlow Street Healthcare.

Heather finds that the diversity of the clients is a constant challenge and the opportunity to work alongside colleagues from multidisciplinary backgrounds is very rewarding.
