Stuart Jenkins is a distinguished healthcare leader, currently serving as the Regional Clinical Director of Primary and Community Care at Northern Region, Health New Zealand. This role marks a significant extension of his dedication to enhancing healthcare delivery across a broader community spectrum, underscoring his commitment to accessible, integrated healthcare solutions.
In his capacity as a General Practitioner and a founding shareholder of Apollo Medical Centre, Stuart has navigated the complexities of healthcare with a spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship, always with a focus on patient-centred care.

Driven by the tragedy that highlighted the critical need for early mental health intervention, Stuart has been instrumental in pioneering digital wellbeing screening in schools. Through GoodSpace, he utilises his comprehensive expertise in healthcare management, governance, and strategic planning to create a supportive ecosystem for student mental and emotional wellbeing.
Stuart's vision extends beyond immediate healthcare responses. As Regional Clinical Director, he advocates for a holistic approach where healthcare and educational systems collaborate, ensuring that every child has access to the support they need. His leadership is characterized by a relentless pursuit of a future where mental health care is proactive, accessible, and seamlessly integrated into every aspect of community care.
Dedicated to the idea that early, empathetic intervention can change lives, Stuart's work bridges the gap between healthcare services and educational settings, positioning him as a key figure in the movement towards a healthier, more supportive environment for all. His unwavering commitment to this cause inspires hope and action, highlighting the transformative impact of compassionate, informed leadership on our communities.
