Meeting goals for a step up in performance.

Counting among his biggest spare-time interests a lifelong passion for Newcastle United Football Club, Darryn Kerr, estates and facilities director at the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, believes that, in footballing terms, his two years in post have seen the Trust move from Championship to Premier Division status. However, as he told Jonathan Baillie, as an IHEEM Council and Executive Committee member, and chairman of the Institute's Education Committee, he is equally determined that IHEEM should further strengthen its role as the UK's leading healthcare estates and facilities organisation and, on a wider front, become a pre-eminent industry institution.
