Chair’s
Welcome
Dear Members,
Welcome to the Autumn edition of the IPW Journal.
The past 18 months have been a period of
considerable change for the Institute. Throughout that
time, our focus has remained on supporting our
members, maintaining professional standards and
building a strong foundation for the IPW’s future. There
is still work to do, but we have good reason to be
encouraged by the progress being made.
With that in mind, I am delighted to welcome Dr Paul
Hutchinson as our new Head of Training. Paul will play
an important role in reviewing and developing our
training materials and delivery, ensuring that our
programme continues to reflect the practical needs of
members and the demands of an evolving profession.
We look forward to sharing more about this work in the
months ahead.
In this edition, you will also hear
from new sponsors, whose
support and expertise are a
welcome addition to the IPW
community. I hope you find their
contributions useful, and I would
particularly encourage you to
read Paul Dodsworth’s update.
