Xander

Hello! I am Xander, the Senior CHD Health Youth Worker.

I have been in my job now for about 4 years, supporting young people 13-24, and their families, living with CHD across South West England and South Wales.

I have learnt a lot in my time with the charity and the clinical teams and am still learning every day!

Imogen

Hi! I am Imogen, the second Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) Health Youth Worker, working alongside Xander.

I empower young people to become the best version of themselves. I will be working from the hospital and out and about to provide advocacy for young people in managing their health condition. Get in touch, or catch me around the hospital.

We both work for Youth at Heart, a small charity that is independent from the NHS and hold honorary contracts with University Hospitals Bristol & Weston NHS Foundation Trust.
