I have over 30?years' experience of working in a variety of operating theatre settings locally, nationally, and internationally and have a keen interest in all educational matters, especially the vital role that educators and coaches play in supporting and developing learners.

Charlene Lobo works as an educational consultant, having spent most of her employed life as a nurse, health visitor, and Senior Lecturer in Public Health and Primary Care at the University of East Anglia. As senior lecturer, she also held the practice education lead in the School of Health Sciences, very much focusing on the quality of the learning environment and how to improve the experiences for both students and mentors.
