Hilary Simons, NaTHNaC's Senior Specialist Nurse has recently retired. We thank Hilary for all her hard work and excellent leadership over the years. She will be greatly missed by the team.

From the end of September/early October, we are also pleased to announce that Michelle Sellors, another experienced travel health specialist nurse, will be joining the nurse team, 3 days a week on a six-month secondment from her current role with UK Health Security Agency. We look forward to working with Michelle in the coming months.
