Claire Hodgson
Vet and Director,
Affinity Futures
Claire graduated form the RVC in 2000 and worked in most areas of clinical practice for the last 19 years. Following her own health challenges following a diagnosis of CFS/ME 5 years ago she co-founded the Fb group Veterinary Spoonholders UK to give fellow professionals a safe space to chat and provide peer to peer support. This has raised awareness of the lack of understanding and discussion about how we as a profession deal with the challenges of living and working with chronic health issues. She is passionate about changing this and is co-founding an organisation aimed at filling this gap and doing for chronic health issues what Mind Matters has been doing for mental health issues.
