OBE for NHS South of England Chairman


31 December, 2012 | News
The Chairman of the Board of NHS South of England, Dr Geoffrey Harris, has been awarded an OBE for services to healthcare.
Dr Harris, from Buckinghamshire, was appointed in October 2011 as the Strategic Health Authority cluster Chairman for NHS South of England, having previously served as NHS South Central’s Chairman since July 2006.
He is a former Chair of Buckinghamshire Mental Health NHS Trust and was a Non-Executive Director at the merged Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust.
Dr Harris said: “I am very surprised and delighted to receive this honour. It has been immensely rewarding to contribute towards the running of the NHS which is often challenging but always interesting.”
A former medical research scientist, Dr Harris has worked for Wellcome Foundation, HM Diplomatic Service, and as Director of the British Overseas Trade Group for Israel. He also has served as a Member of the Public Health Laboratory Service (now the Health Protection Agency).
The NHS South of England Chief Executive, Sir Ian Carruthers, OBE, speaking on behalf of Board said: “We are absolutely delighted that Dr Harris has been recognised for his considerable and outstanding contribution to the NHS. He has very successfully led the regional NHS during a period of unprecedented change; and this honor is testament to Geoff’s leadership and commitment. As a Board we are extremely proud of Geoff for all his efforts, and for achieving such a well-deserved honour.”

For alienating the public and destroying all faith in the credibility of the NHS
