Professional Background
Alicia Smith has a wealth of experience and qualifications in various health consultancy roles. She chose to complete her education at Bristol University where she earned an MSc in Nutrition, Physical Activity and Public Health. She credits her parents for inspiring this decision, as they both worked in similar healthcare-related roles in the Bristol area.
On completion of her studies, Alicia immediately sought out volunteer roles within her field, to gain some much-needed practical experience. She worked with the general public in London, through a number of different charities, and she cites this experience as particularly formative in her career. This work involved drafting Wellness Recovery Action Plans (WRAP), and consulting with various charitable groups, on how they can better support their community.
As she built a reputation for her patient-oriented and highly detailed work, she began working more in research and data-related roles. She has spent the last decade dedicating her work to improving the United Kingdom’s public understanding of general health management.
