- Professor Tarannum Rampal, Consultant Anaesthetist and Lead, Perioperative Prehabilitation Unit, Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH), King’s College London NHS Foundation Trust

John is a retired white British man, who drove to clinic and has a good rapport with his doctor. He feels motivated by the exercise classes at his private gym and tracks his progress using prehab apps and his FitBit. His wife (who does all the cooking) finds the dietary advice helpful because it gives healthy alternatives for traditional British food that they eat.
Winnie is from Barbados. She had to get the bus to clinic (and now she’s late for her shift). She’s offered exercise sessions, if they can fit around work, but the bus links are awful. The dietary information is unhelpful as she can’t get the ingredients from Brixton Market and her budget is tight. She doesn’t have the time to learn lots of new recipes.
