Simon GriffithsAfter completing an accredited BSc degree in Environmental Health in 1995 I was awarded the Environmental Health Officers’ Registration Board certificate and began to practice as an Environmental Health Officer in UK local government. I have practiced in all areas of environmental health (food safety, health and safety, housing, and environmental protection) but most of post qualification experience was in the field of environmental protection where I also spent a number of years as the team manager for.

In 2008 I joined the Health Protection Agency as an Environmental Public Health Scientist in the then Chemical Hazards and Poisons Division. I moved to the HPA’s Health Emergency Planning Service in 2009 taking a lead role in risk management, chemical hazards, radiation, flooding, etc. in the resilience function.
