Lynn Dunne is Interim Chief Executive of Bowel Research UK.
Lynn is a senior nurse by profession with an additional MA in Law & Medical Ethics. Her career in the NHS and voluntary sector spans over 40 years.
Lynn’s most recent experience has been that of a patient. In September 2020 she found herself on the bowel cancer pathway as a result of the national screening programme. Major surgery, a temporary ileostomy and chemotherapy followed and thankfully a year later she has received the all clear. The surgeons and the colorectal cancer team who cared for Lynn were fantastic under the most testing of times for the NHS and are her motivation for taking this post as a thank you to them and the wider colorectal community.
