Independent advice
Clinical and Professional Advisory Group
The group advises on accuracy, educational quality and the limits of digital tools. It does not manage FND Connect day to day. It is not an NHS committee or a statutory clinical regulator.
What the group may do
- Review relevant clinical and educational materials
- Identify inaccuracies or potentially misleading information
- Recommend appropriate evidence and guidance
- Review patient-facing explanations for accuracy
- Advise on the scope and limitations of digital tools
- Comment on proposed educational programmes
- Highlight research opportunities
- Advise on appropriate evaluation methods
- Help identify professional knowledge gaps
- Recommend improvements to safeguarding and clinical escalation information

- Neuropsychiatrist or relevant psychiatrist
- Neurophysiotherapist
- Occupational therapist
- Clinical psychologist
- Speech and language therapist
- Functional seizure specialist

- Person with lived experience of FND
- Carer representative
- Other relevant expertise
Membership does not mean an adviser’s employer endorses FND Connect. Advisers review subjects within their competence and may disagree without pressure to approve a publication or product. Paid advisory work is documented.
