GOC investigation committee expands

CLO Sarah Baylay has been appointed to the General Optical Council’s investigation committee.

The GOC said Baylay had over 16 years’ experience in the optical sector, and in 2004 graduated with a degree in Optical Management. She has managed six different practices, including eight years at a high street multiple and has trained and mentored a number of optical consultants, trainee dispensing opticians and new managers.

Gareth Hadley, GOC chair, said: ‘Sarah brings a tremendous amount of experience to the role, having worked at all levels of optics, and I am confident the committee will benefit greatly from her insight.’
