Since her creation of the role in 2018, Tome has consulted for West End shows, national and international tours, and provides IPC services to actors and creatives working on screen productions. As a passionate advocate for safety and wellbeing in the entertainment industry, she continues to shine a spotlight on the importance of proactive care, most recently as a presenter at the 2022 Q4 Health and Safety Executive’s Joint Advisory Committee for Entertainment.
