Rajveer Athwal

I have a great affinity for Coventry; born, raised, and having worked for The Coventry Building Society for many years, I understand the needs of the people and the services that we require. Through family experience, I know that mental health disorders can be emotionally and physically challenging for all in involved. I am passionate about the advancement of mental health treatments and have subsequently undertaken neuroscience research at The University of Birmingham into neurodegenerative diseases.

I am now training to be Dentist; using my British Sign Language Level 1 and Safeguarding Children Level II, I assisted children with autism and learning difficulties in a specialist school. The services offered by the Trust are a vital lifeline for many; I will strive to ensure that standards are continually improved and the Board of Directors remain morally led and ethically guided.

I share your vision of seeing the Trust grow into a recognised world-class centre of excellence with leading research and patient safety at the heart of care. If elected I promise to engage fully with the community and ensuring that the Trust continues to offer the best possible care for all its service users.
