Chief medical officer
Dr Rachael Pickering MBBS MA MRCGP DRCOG
A British family medicine specialist, Rachael is one of our co-founders. With long experience of offender healthcare both in UK prisons and internationally, she volunteers as our chief medical officer (CMO) and - until someone else suitable comes along - chief executive officer (CEO).
This takes up most of her time, and so she is in and around the Philippines for up to a quarter of each year. When in the UK she also locums as a prison doctor and helps a hospice deliver its services to vulnerable patient groups including prisoners.
Outside of medicine, she is married to Mark and they like spending time with their family. She enjoys many things including kick boxing and teaching SCUBA diving. Having a heart for the environment, she tries to run Integritas along eco-friendly lines, and she dives against debris around the world including Subic Bay.

Our administrative officer, Jhen came to us in 2023 as an on the job trainee (OJT) during her caregiver course at Subic Bay College.
She stayed on to volunteer and proved to have a real talent for healthcare administration. She is now in charge of our Philippines office.

Our projects officer, Lora also came to us in 2023 as an OJT during her caregiver course at Subic Bay College.
She stayed on to volunteer and proved to have particular zest for our police detainee work. She is now in charge of delivering our outreach programs within Philippine places of detention.
Outside of work, her children are grown and she has found true love with an Australian gentleman. She loves nature trips, hiking and bonding with friends.
Other staff
Fellows
Our 2025 intern, Angelica too is a caregiver graduate of Subic Bay College and did her OJT placement with us.
She is now in charge of cooking for our detainee feeding program within Philippine places of detention.
Outside of work, her children are almost grown and she is studying for a BSc.
Mam Cattuchino
We can’t afford a paid psychologist. Instead, we get emotional interventions from Cattuchino who came to us during a pre-pandemic monsoon storm.
Her brother Buttermilk appeared in a ventilation hole, mewing for help. We then found Cattuchino half-drowned at the bottom of the wall. And cat-loving elective student Kelly nursed them back to health.
Buttermilk has moved on but Cattuchino remains a key team member. Her teeth keep the cockroaches at bay and her cuddles keep us content. Oh yes, and we pay her in sardines!
UK-based staff

Drawing on her lived experience of autism, she is also able to advocate for neuro-divergent detainees.
She lives with her husband Jack and their adorable dachshund Albert. She loves art, baking, crochet and homemaking.
Alumni
We’ve been going for well over a decade now, so we thought it appropriate to honour the former staff, trainees, volunteers and governors who have helped to get us to where we are now.
