Our Team

Voices of Experience was established as an organisation in December 2006

Vox Scotland is run day-to-day by our small and friendly team, based in Glasgow. They are always keen to hear from our members, so get in touch if you have any questions, thoughts or suggestion!

Natalie Stevenson (Manager)
Maryam Razeghian<br /> (Project Assistant)

I’m excited to begin my journey with VOX Scotland. I have completed my master’s degree in clinical psychology , I’m passionate about understanding human behaviour and applying that knowledge to create meaningful impact. 

I’m eager to bring a fresh perspective to the team, learn from all of you, and grow both personally and professionally. I’m looking forward to contributing my enthusiasm and curiosity to this new chapter with VOX Scotland and I’m excited for what we’ll achieve together!

Paula Fraser (Development Officer)

I am committed to pushing for positive action and change that people with living and lived experience of mental health problems need, want, and deserve. So, I’m here, and I’m listening! I’m asking questions, and I’m gathering people’s views on issues that matter and represent those as effectively as possible to the people who can take action.

Getting outside, no matter what the weather is, is really important for me and, luckily, I have children who agree! So, muddy puddle walks, cycling by the river, and attempts at (junior!) archery in the garden are good for us! I love trips to the beach, visiting castles, having fun with friends and family. I like reading, eating chocolate, watching films (which I forget the plot of very soon afterward, so it’s like the first time every time!) and singing/dancing along to music while I hang up the washing, do the dishes, and cook the dinner! (Yes, at the same time 😀)

Jonathan Grant (Policy and Participation Officer)

I’m committed to the principle of ‘nothing about us without us’. I’m looking forward to meeting as many VOX members as I can and I’m eager to listen, to find out what matters most to you, and to make real improvements to policy and practice.

Alongside working at VOX, I’m training to be a counselling psychologist. In my spare time, I love reading, cooking, cinema and hiking with my two young children.

Heather Knox (Campaigns & Public Affairs Officer)

My background is in political strategy and communications, having spent almost a decade working in the UK Parliament and, prior to that, several years at Holyrood. I have also worked in the aerospace sector and was Project Manager for a small consultancy company, working on donor funded projects connected to EU Enlargement, where I spent some time working in different accession countries. I have an MA in Politics and European Studies, an LLM in European Law and a Diploma in Public Affairs Management, and look forward to working with the Vox Scotland team to help amplify the voices of our members and shape policy and services relating to mental health.  Outside of work, I play tennis, go running, and enjoy watching lots of sport, walking my dog and trying (unsuccessfully) to improve my Spanish.

VOX Scotland is a national membership organisation, open to all people in Scotland with lived experience of mental health difficulties. We represent the views of our 500+ individual, group, and associate members to politicians and health professionals – making sure that Scotland’s laws and mental health services reflect their needs and interests.
