Paul Draycott – a message from our Chief Executive, Dr Buki Adeyemo

Sometimes in our lives, there are words that are incredibly painful to write and incredibly difficult to read. It is with the most profound sadness and regret that I need to inform you of the passing of our dear friend and colleague, Chief People Officer Paul Draycott, last Friday.

Paul was truly and deeply loved by so many of us at Combined Healthcare.  He was the living embodiment of everything that is good about the NHS and his chosen profession – developing and caring for its people.   

Dr Buki Adeyemo.

Chief Executive.
