Mark Hazelwood

At Forum 2011, Mark Hazelwood, director of  the Scottish Partnership for Palliative Care, spoke on "Ireland and Scotland-can we learn from each other"?

He began his career as an NHS Scotland Management trainee, moving subsequently through a series of management roles in the Scottish acute sector. He then spent four years running VSO’s international development operations in Ghana, West Africa, a role he carried out as a job share with his wife. Returning to Scotland he became Director of the Multiple Sclerosis Society Scotland, leading the organisation through nine years of growth including the development of respite services for people with advanced MS and complex needs.

Mark has been Director of the Scottish Partnership for Palliative Care since December 2009.
