Dr Ian Owen - Director

Dr David Humphreys - Director

Dr Alistair Thompson - Director

Hi I am Al Thompson, director looking at organisational development and keeping an eye on finance, with the help of our Chief Officer Helen. 

I am retired having completed 50 years GP in Wigan, most of this done in Atherton. 

My interests now include acting as a trustee of a community leisure centre and spending money on my boat in Scotland. I now realise that boat stands for ‘bang on another thousand’. 

Life long I have believed in the importance of small practices and that now includes GP Federations and PCNs as a protecting factor, umbrella, for practices. Change always happens but that does not mean we need to loose the best bits. 

Kerry White - Director

Hi, I am Kerry White.  I am a Director of Wigan Borough Federated Healthcare, looking at workforce development.

I am currently a Practice Manager of a large GP practice in the Wigan area.  I am also part of the Wigan Advocate team. 

I have worked within General Practice since 2004 and have extensive experience within the Health Service in Wigan and beyond. 

I believe in a strong workforce, empowering staff to use their skills to excel in their roles and to contribute to a successful organisation.  I promote positivity in the workforce and ‘celebrating the good’.
