John Cornell qualified in Manchester in 19 75. After training in surgery, he trained in general practice and became a principal in Sheffield in 1984. He entered public health in 1994 and was appointed Consultant in Public Health Medicine in Doncaster in 1998.

His main areas of activity are implementing locally the Coronary Heart Disease National Framework, Caldicott implementation in primary care and developing the public health functions of the PCT. Frada Eskin qualified in medicine at the University of Sheffield in 1960. She chose to make her medical career in the field of public health. After being appointed to various posts in public health in Sheffield and in Derbyshire, she left public health practice in 1975 to run a Department of Health-funded National Continuing Education Unit based in the Department of Social and Preventive Medicine in the medical school at Manchester University, where she spent the next 14 years as director of the unit. During this time she developed expertise in management education and personal development, which she was able to integrate into public health medicine training. She returned to work in the NHS in 1989 as consultant in public health medicine at Yorkshire Health and then as Deputy Director of Public Health for Sheffield Health Authority, from where she retired in July 2001. She has published widely on a variety of public health topics, management and personal development, including two books and a substantial number of papers.
