TRIBUTE TO LORNA COSH GAMH TRUSTEE

I am so sad to let you know that our dear friend and Board Trustee Lorna Cosh passed away last week. Lorna was a fantastic asset to our Board , an intelligent and vibrant person who brought knowledge and perspective from her lived experience to our strategic discussions and organisational decision making. Lorna was an outstanding and tireless ambassador for GAMH values, she promoted our work and the impact it can have on individual and collective recovery wherever she went. Lorna was committed to encouraging participation , both locally and nationally to ensure that  the invaluable influence of the voices of people with  lived experience was not lost when mental health policy initiatives and mental health  services were being planned, designed and implemented.

Those of you who knew Lorna will also know she had a warm personality with an infectious sense of humour which she used to make everyone feel welcome and included in our work and we will miss her so very much.
