Our Board
William Esau, Dr Tabitha Healey, and Jennifer Rees
The St Andrew’s Hospital Foundation Board is made up of generous individuals who volunteer their time and expertise. Bringing professional knowledge and specialist insight across law, healthcare, finance, and community leadership, the Board provides strategic oversight, ensures responsible financial stewardship, and upholds the Foundation’s values. Hospital leadership regularly attend and contribute to Board discussions, helping align the Foundation’s work with the Hospital’s priorities. Working closely with the Foundation team, the Board attracts, encourages, and honours acts of generosity, supporting the long-term success of St Andrew’s Hospital.
Our Team
The Foundation team works closely with St Andrew’s Hospital and the wider community to make all major projects possible. As a small but dedicated team, we connect people through volunteering, events, and philanthropy, managing a 130-strong volunteer program, the Wellbeing Centre, and the hospital’s social media and newsletters. We foster partnerships with donors, corporate partners, and community organisations, and oversee major equipment purchases, development projects, joint roles, and clinical scholarships. Every initiative is carefully coordinated to ensure meaningful impact for patients, support for staff, and the long-term success of St Andrew’s Hospital.
