Suspension(suspended from practice)· 1 year
The GDC tribunal decided that Miss Colwill's fitness to practise as a dental nurse is impaired by her stalking conviction and by misconduct. The Professional Conduct Committee found that she had been convicted at Exeter Magistrates' Court in May 2024 of stalking causing serious alarm and distress, and that she had then failed to tell the GDC about the conviction immediately, waiting nearly three months. The Committee found that delay was misleading and dishonest. It suspended her registration for 12 months with a review, and ordered immediate suspension to cover the appeal period.
