Your Committee

Eve Croucher

Chair / Administration

Having previously worked as an SRN has given me an understanding of many foot health related issues. In 2003 I retrained as an FHP and have not looked back. I enjoy the independence of being able to offer great foot care to lovely patients. Being part of the SCP&FHP has given the opportunity to learn and share many laughs with good friends and colleagues.

I now work very part time, giving me time to enjoy walking in our village & reading. I also love line dancing and do this twice a week as well as Tia Chi 😊

Angela Nobes

Committee member

I qualified with SMAE in 1994 & have been a member of the HCPC since 2004.

I am as passionate now about good footcare as when I first qualified and have been fortunate enough to work around a family life, part-time & full-time. I have a surgery in the Petersfield/Liss area, as well as a few domiciliary patients who were some of my first clients. I sing with Rock Choir (don’t ask!), love walking with the dog (& husband!) & more recently enjoying the antics of 2 grandchildren.

Caroline Swain

DBS

I qualified as a Foot Health Practitioner in 2019 at the SMAE Institute and provide a domiciliary footcare service in Lymington.

I enjoy sailing with friends and family, dog walks and Scottish Country Dancing.

Caroline Porter

Education

I owned a Ladies Boutique in Chichester for over 23 years until I had my son in 2009. I began a new career in 2010 working for Age Concern as a Foot Assistant and went on to Qualified as a Foot Health Practitioner in 2015. I have continued working for Age Concern in my new role in clinics at Petersfield hospital and Havant. I also work privately for home visits.

I like running, have an allotment and enjoy water sports. I belong to an ATA re-enactment group where we show across the South.

Bernie Godley

Sharps

Hello, my name is Bernie.

I am a mobile FHP, based in the Portsmouth area and also cover surrounding areas such as Emsworth, Havant & Waterlooville.

In my spare time I love to play netball and darts!

Emily Goodwin

Treasurer

I qualified as a foot health practitioner in 2020 and started off working in clinics while I was building my knowledge and skills. I am now lucky enough to work for myself full time providing home visits for my local community which I absolutely love. I find being a foot health practitioner so rewarding and am really enjoying the flexibility being self-employed offers me. I am also really enjoying being a part of the committee as it brings me the sense of team spirit that I miss from working with others in a clinic setting. 

I like to take my beloved dog for nice long walks and am always excited to get planning my next holiday!

Jayne Cornelius

Secretary

I have worked as an FHP since 2019. Visiting clients in their own homes. I’m based in Chandlers Ford and cover some surrounding areas. 

When I’m not working I enjoy going for walks in the New Forest with my family. I also enjoy Pilates and various crafts.

Lynne Sillence

Booking Secretary

I worked as a nursing auxiliary before commencing my SRN training in London. I stayed home until my youngest child was at secondary school by which time I had become a full time carer for my mum-in-law. I then trained as a Foot Health Practitioner and love my work which feels more like a pleasure than a job. I enjoy the opportunities to learn new skills through the SCP&FHP association. Working part time gives me the chance to enjoy gardening and various activities with my church community.

Hi I’m Julie, I’m 67 years old and a widow, I read most things, love to cook, throwing dinner party’s often!! I also travel quite a lot when I can.  I love my home life, it’s very quiet now but I enjoy that after a long day at work. I work around ten hours a day, four and a half days a week, although  I am looking to reduce this to three days a week. I have two children and two grandchildren and a dog who I adore.
