I met Deborah in 2012 when I joined the London Public Health Lab to support with the Olympics, I found Deborah super professional, hardworking, lots of fun and caring. Deborah was a joy to know as a person and wonderful to work with professionally. She was very generous with her time and supported me on my training day trips to the NECL HPT acute desk and even helped me with preparations for my first consultant interview. I’ve just looked over our emails together & I can say she never forgot to say thank you. So I’d just like to take this opportunity to say an enormous thank you to Deborah for her friendship and amazing professional standards, a wonderful example to us all. Thanks for everything. Derren xx
