WPHT currently has four Trustees: Ross Bryson (Chair), Hilary Garraway and Angela Painter.

ROSS BRYSON, a follower of Jesus, has worked in primary healthcare in the developing world, in community paediatrics, in drug addiction and has been a GP for 30 years. He sees in General Practice a unique opportunity to care for the needs of the whole person and facilitate change in communities. He leads an organisation that enables churches to be part of this process. Recognising that there are universal needs in the human spirit led him to develop the role of Chaplaincy in General Practice.

HILARY GARRAWAY is a consultant clinical psychologist for adult mental health in Enfield, North London and prior to that worked in Early Intervention in Psychosis. Hilary has worked in a range of settings including residential child care, youth work, primary health care and was with Youth With A Mission for about ten years. During her time with Youth with a Mission she worked alongside Dr Mike Sheldon (founder of WPHT) helping to provide counselling training both in the UK and in Uganda, developing the concepts of whole person health care and establishing a community project based on some of these principles. Hilary describes herself as a charismatic contemplative and worships both in a local church and is part of Contemplative Fire. She is currently chair of the National Spirituality and Mental Health Forum and the spirituality lead for the British Psychological Society. Her desire to integrate her faith and work has led to the development of Holistic Cognitive Behaviour Therapy which incorporates spirituality and creativity within CBT.
