David Huxter

Patient & Public Voice for patient & carer. My main role is carer for my wife who has disabilities.

About Me

I have retired from teaching in secondary schools and recently teaching special needs children. I have managed their Health & Safety and been a First Aider. As I am my wife’s carer I have become involved with disability groups and health issues. I am keen on DIY and I have made and installed disability aids and wet room. I have run marathons to raise money
for Asthma research and interested in sports to keep fit. I want to be involved in improving medicine safety and preventing medical waste.
