Yvonne Rogers
Vice Chair of the Board of Trustees and Joint Chair of the Finance and Workforce Committee
I was really pleased to have been appointed as a Trustee at the Hospice. It is great to be part of something so special and I am really looking forward to working together with everyone.
All my career (35 years+) has been in the NHS and all of it has been in Greater Manchester. Although I live in Bolton, I did work for 13 years at Birch Hill Hospital in HR & Workforce and developed a strong fondness for the both Rochdale and the people who live in the area and who worked at the hospital. I was privileged to work with Robert Clegg too and he introduced me to the Hospice many years ago where I learned about the value of the work and support given to those in need.
Having now retired from full time work, I felt it was time to do something valuable with my time and when this opportunity arose, I was so excited! I enjoy working with people from all walks of life and hope that I can bring some of my experiences to support you with your work.
