Autorenporträt
Roy Jones led the team that introduced Stanford's Arthritis Self Management Programme to the UK, as Director of Services at Arthritis Care. Between 1993 and 2000 the programme grew extensively and was piloted in the NHS after the adoption of the Expert Patients report in 2001. Roy served on the DoH Task Force and the DoH Implementation Group guiding those developments. Previously, as Director of the Council for Voluntary Service, Northampton and County, community development work formed his commitment to local level service delivery. He worked on the establishment of the Councils of Disabled People and supporting independent welfare rights services. His concern for disabled people continues as Vice Chair of the Disability Alliance. In his consultancy role he has worked for the Department of Health and a number of health management and pharmaceutical companies. His continuing academic links are primarily with Coventry University and The School of Pharmacy, London, UK.
