Alice Semark

Senior Researcher

I first joined Re:State in September 2024. I am a Senior Researcher on the 'Re:Imagining Health' programme where I lead work across health and social care policy. My research has primarily focussed on adult social care and secondary care reform, as well as innovation in the NHS, community care, and women's health.

Before joining Re:State, I volunteered for a homelessness charity, in conservation work, and as an athletics coach. I also spent time working in primary care as medical receptionist and administrator. My policy interests include all aspects of health and social care, welfare, devolution, and defence.

My favourite reformer is… 

Marsha P. Johnson. A trailblazer for the LGBTQ+ rights movement and HIV/AIDS activist who committed her whole life, unwaveringly, to helping and advocating for others.

What gets you out of bed in the morning?

Fear of being late.
