EMMA HUGHES

As Policy and Engagement Manager for our work in Wales, my work includes policy, public affairs, communications and events. I work to generate and communicate a patient and family viewpoint on policy and practice relating to the development of genetics in healthcare in Wales. My background is in Law, Marketing and Communications, and I have previously worked in roles consulting with young people on disability rights and supporting projects benefiting the health and social care of children in developing countries. I believe that the patient voice is the single most powerful aspect in the development and implementation of new services, information, and support.
