Content Manager
Bethan Forbes
As Content Manager at Medico, I lead our team of writers and editors, working closely with our SEO specialists, strategic partners and clinical experts to plan content that meets each client’s goals and reaches the people searching for it.
Why I’m passionate about healthcare
Everyone should be able to find health information they can trust and understand. But misinformation, confusing content and low health literacy still get in the way. When people can’t make sense of a condition or treatment, it’s harder for them to make decisions, speak up for themselves with healthcare professionals or get the care they need. I love that our work helps to break down those barriers. Our teams work together to create reliable, accurate health information that people can easily find, understand and use. That gives them the confidence to make informed choices about their health and wellbeing, and ultimately leads to better health outcomes.
The work that inspires me most
Women’s health is an area I really care about. For too long, women have faced gaps in research, pain bias and symptoms that get dismissed. Helping to change that is one of the best parts of my job, whether we’re helping people with pregnancy sickness find support, bringing menopause into everyday conversation or supporting people through fertility treatment. Creating content that supports patients when they feel most vulnerable is something I never take for granted.
Outside of work
When I’m not heading up our content team, I can be found in Bristol with my food photographer husband eating my way around the city. I love travelling somewhere new with a good book, cosying up in an old pub or swimming outdoors in pretty much any weather.
