About British Innovation

Capable, curious and grounded in practice.

Meet the founder

Dr Julie Winstanley

Psychologist · Researcher · Educator · Founder & Director, Living Well Partners Ltd

Julie brings 26 years of experience across psychology, healthcare, research, higher education, leadership, consultancy and organisational development.

A former Senior Lecturer with a PhD in maternal health research, she has worked extensively in professional education, curriculum development, research and consultancy — including service evaluation, feasibility studies, systematic literature reviews and commissioned research.

Over the past four years, Julie has extended this experience into digital innovation, developing the knowledge and technical skills to design digital platforms and learning environments. Her work takes a systems-based approach, bringing together research, service design, workforce capability and technology.

Her perspective is also informed by lived experience of disability, long-term health challenges, family life and navigating public services — which shapes a strong commitment to accessible, inclusive and practical learning.
