Head of Operations: Information and Services

Emma Rushton

Emma Rushton joined the Trust in August 2014. Before joining the Trust she worked in the education sector, supporting and mentoring vulnerable children and their families. Emma has held various roles at the Trust and moved into the role of Head of Operations: Information and Services in 2024. She has responsibility for ensuring that quality support services are provided to all people with MSA, their carers, friends and family and healthcare professionals.

I am passionate about people receiving the support they need at the time right for them, whether that is information, practical or emotional support. I am also keen to raise the Trusts profile on the international movement disorders stage to better collaboration, and we’re always looking for new ways to raise awareness of MSA among health and care professionals here in the UK and Ireland.
