About Rose

Rose is a Senior Innovation Consultant at Innovation Unit and is passionate about community-led innovation, co-production and supporting people to collaborate and learn with purpose. 

Rose’s work takes a place-based approach – which is about understanding the challenges, interconnection and relationships in a place, and working together so people can live well locally. This involves working with communities and a range of national and local partners, supporting them to collectively move into action.

All her work to date has focused on supporting people, places and organisations to make an impact in their world, reduce inequalities, and improve local outcomes. Rose joined Innovation Unit from the People Powered Results team at Nesta, and previously Kaleidoscope Health and Care and the Health Foundation. Rose has worked with health, charity, community, and public sector partners across the UK, and draws on this experience in her work at Innovation Unit.

Rose is based in Edinburgh, and works across the UK. On the weekend she can usually be found exploring Edinburgh’s charity shops, on the look out for antique furniture.
