Welcome to PROSPECT
PROSPECT designs and runs workshops for health professionals on a range of topics. Each workshop is individually planned to meet the specific needs of the participants. Workshops are commissioned by managers, educators or groups of staff and are run on their premises.

PROSPECT was set up in 1987 as a partnership of four experienced trainers. Since its foundation, PROSPECT has provided tailor-made workshops for staff at all levels of the NHS and has won plaudits from across the country.

PROSPECT workshops are now run by Judith Schott who has continued to work as an independent trainer since her partners retired in 1995.


I have worked in and around the health service for over 35 years as a health professional, consumer representative, parent educator and researcher. Since 1987 I have concentrated on writing, and on developing and running workshops for health professionals to support and enhance their ability to provide optimal care. I am a member of the editorial board of the British Journal of Midwifery and an advisor to Sands (the Stillbirth and neonatal death charity).

I am co-author of Pregnancy Loss and the Death of a Baby: guidelines for health professionals (Sands 2007): Leading Antenatal Classes - a practical guide (Books for Midwives 2002); Culture, Religion and Patient Care in a Multi-ethnic society (ACE Books England 1999) and Culture, Religion and Childbearing in a Multi-racial Society (Butterworth Heinemann 1996).
