Border Crossings:
Charity and Voluntarism in Britain's Mixed Economy of Health Care Since 1948
University of Birmingham,
Third Sector Research Centre
Start date: August 2021
This project examines the history of health-related charity and volunteering in the UK since the formation of the National Health Service (NHS). Through identifying relevant case studies - including third sector institutions that have moved in and out of the NHS - we investigate their relative failures and successes, the challenges they have faced and achievements made. In so doing, we contribute to ongoing debates about the relative advantages and disadvantages of the voluntary sector, both broadly and specifically regarding health-care provision.
This is a collaborative research project by the Universities of Birmingham, Edinburgh, Strathclyde, and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
This project is funded by a £1.4 million grant from the Wellcome Trust through their Collaborative Awards in Humanities and Social Sciences scheme.

Mapping Philanthropy in Scotland
University of St Andrews,
Centre for the Study of Philanthropy and Public Good
Addressing the currently limited number of resources and publications exploring Scotland's rich history of philanthropy, this project aims to develop an online story map allowing users to identify and learn about places, people, and events of philanthropic interest in Scotland.
I support and contribute to this ongoing project through:
-
Data collection and analysis, primarily using text and archival research
-
Writing and contributing to joint publications
-
Planning, creating, and delivering presentation materials to project funders and stakeholders
-
Producing and managing blog content based on project findings; our blog posts were read by over 14,000 people in 2019
-
Designing and delivering public engagement projects for a range of academic, practitioner, and public audiences
This project is funded by a £9,000 Knowledge and Impact Grant from the University of St Andrews.
