Please join us in welcoming the new CEO for Tinnitus UK

The Board of Trustees at Tinnitus UK are delighted to announce their new incoming CEO. Alex Brooks-Johnson, a highly experienced voluntary sector leader, will be taking up the role of CEO from September 2024 joining from social care charity, Guild Care, where he has spent a successful five years.

Tinnitus UK has undergone significant changes in leadership in recent years. Alex's appointment marks a crucial step towards achieving stability and setting a clear direction for the future.

Lynne Gillon, Chair of the Board of Trustees, commented, ‘Tinnitus UK has never been more relevant with a growing number of people being impacted by this dreadful condition. One in Seven people now live with tinnitus, some much better than others. We led a search to find the right leader to work with us, someone who can help guide the organisation to the next level’. Lynne added, ‘We’re delighted that Alex is coming on board in September to help us shape our new plans as we look both to fund research and to provide more support to more people living with tinnitus’.

Alex said, ‘I am so pleased to have been selected as the new CEO for this amazing organisation, it is a real honour. I have had tinnitus for 10 years and am committed to using my skills and experience to help provide a better future for those who, like me, have had to try and adapt to life with tinnitus’.

A very warm welcome to you Alex, wishing you success with your new job, good to have someone who will understand the condition, although it’s a pain in the neck and I’m sure it is something you would rather not have. 😊

A positive appointment from both sides, a warm welcome to our new champion. I'm shocked to read that 1 in 7 have T, the majority of time I feel as if people's understanding of the impact of the condition is not appreciated, even amongst close friends, simply because they have not experienced it. Sure, there are horrible days and better days but I am increasingly skipping social events as I know that a noisy environment can sometimes be a trigger for me and I'm trying to habituate but it's baby steps at present. I do find this group helpful though and like to contribute where I feel it would be helpful. Happy weekend all
