Laura Tantum

Laura joined GGI in June 2016 as a researcher in the Knowledge Management team, where she provided programme support on a range of projects and was also involved in developing and maintaining GGI’s body of knowledge. Laura is now in the Programme Delivery team, where she continues to provide project management support as well as ensuring that knowledge and learning from GGI’s projects is shared throughout the team. Whilst at GGI, Laura has worked on a number of projects involving the integration of health and care services and new models of care, which has included providing support to the development of an Accountable Care System in the north of England. Laura has also provided project management support on a range of governance reviews, within both the NHS and universities. Currently, Laura is working on a variety of research-based programmes of work. These include looking at how flexible infrastructure may help acute trusts and GP federations to use their assets more innovatively, and the potential role that care homes can have in the development of Sustainability and Transformation Plans (STPs). Prior to joining GGI, Laura studied Classics at King’s College London and graduated with a first class degree in July 2016, with her dissertation focusing on the poetry of Ovid. During her time at King’s, she also volunteered with The Iris Project, teaching Latin in London state schools.
