Rachel Collins
Patient Care Advisor
For over ten years I was part of the Carecall team that provide personal alarms for clients to use in their own homes. I joined the Provide Wellbeing team in May 2019, originally to cover Reception on a temporary basis. In December 2019 I became a Patient Care Advisor and permanently joined the growing team. I enjoy the variety of workload and meeting patients at the clinic. It is a small and friendly team. I have four grandsons that keep me busy during my spare time. I enjoy spending time with my family.

Alix Willmore
Speech and Language Therapist
I trained at the University of East Anglia and graduated in 2014. Since then I have been working with a wide range of children both in the NHS and independent practice, in special needs and mainstream schools. I have completed additional training on gold standard ASD assessment tools including the ADI-R and ADOS-2 assessments, in addition to specific ASD interventions such as Attention Autism, PACT and PECS. I joined Provide Wellbeing in 2021 as an ASD assessor. I enjoy facilitating diagnoses for children as I feel this often helps families gain extra support. Also I enjoy working as part of an MDT. Every day is different and no two children with ASD are the same, so it is always exciting to know you are going to meet someone different every day of your work.
