HCPC appoints new Lay Council Member

01 Ion 2018

The Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) is pleased to announce the appointment of Kathryn Foreman to Council.

Kathryn will take up her post as Lay Council Member on Monday 1 January 2018 for a term of four years.

Kathryn spent six years at the Cheshire Fire and Rescue service as Deputy Chief Fire Officer and Secretary and Solicitor to the Fire Authority and was the first female, and first person without an operational background, to hold the role nationally.  Kathryn’s experience also includes governance consultancy and a non-executive director role.

Elaine Buckley, Council Chair HCPC, commented:

“I would like to offer Kathryn a warm welcome to Health and Care Professions Council. I look forward to drawing on her extensive senior management experience in both executive and non-executive roles, across a number of organisations, and her legal and governance expertise which I am sure will be a valuable contribution to the Council.”

Notes to editors

The Health and Care Professions Council is an independent regulator set up by the Health and Social Work Professions Order 2001. The HCPC keeps a register for 16 different health and care professions and only registers people who meet the standards it sets for their training, professional skills, behaviour and health. The HCPC will take action against professionals who do not meet these standards or who use a protected title illegally.


The HCPC currently regulates the following 16 professions. Each of these professions has one or more ‘protected titles’. Anyone who uses one of these titles must register with the HCPC. The full list of protected titles can be found below.


The HCPC regulates social workers in England. Social workers in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales are separately regulated by the relevant Care Council in that country.
