Social Care - Practice Solutions, Wales

About us

Practice Solutions was originally set up by Gabe Conlon in 1999 to provide bespoke, flexible training and consultancy services to the health and social care sector.

Since then the organisation has evolved to include digital media services, which offers unique solutions for service user participation and involvement. More recently, we have also developed our business to provide interim management, complaint investigations and bespoke design services for our customers.

Practice Solutions has not only worked with local authorities and third sector organisations throughout Wales but has also been commissioned to work in the North and South West of England. Over the years we have developed a reputation for providing high quality, innovative, flexible and tailored solutions that enable organisations meet the challenges within the social care sector.

Our team draws on a network of specialist Associates who have the right skills, experience and knowledge required to deliver an effective service to our clients. Each has a successful track record in either children’s or adult social care management, professional training or service delivery.

Tina Donovan
Associate Consultant
Tina has worked in the health and social care sector for over 37 years, initially training in childcare and learning disabilities as a nurse, working in the NHS in Leicester, Gwent and South Glamorgan as well as working with children with complex learning disabilities and challenging behaviours in Jersey for a period of time.

She has worked in both the Private and Public Sector in Wales commissioning and as a Service Provider ranging from Secure Service Provision through to Supported Accommodation following having an instrumental role in managing the closure of Ely Hospital in Cardiff. Tina has recently retired from running her own Company for the last 7 years in providing support and accommodation for young adults on the Autistic Spectrum and Asperger’s Syndrome.

She has a wealth of experience in the development of services, service provision, and training within the field as well as strong links with other colleagues and professionals. The main underlying principle in her work is that Tina strongly believes it is essential to have a very sound values base and a passion in the way people with learning disabilities, mental health, and any vulnerable adults are treated within our society, and that individuals should be empowered and supported to reach their own aspirations in their lives.
