When I'm sparing i tend to switch to southpaw and neglect to use my left hand alot in favour of my much stronger right.

Any ideas on improving my footwork and indeed improving the left?>

Cheers

Just noticed your post, sorry for the delay...

To be honest, the only way of improving the left and footwork is to focus on them. Even if it's just setting yourself of a goal of for a particular round of sparring against a particular opponent (I'm only going to use my left, unless I come under particularly heavy fire in which case I'll bring out the big gun).

Don't tell them you're going to do it, but give it a go. Whatever you're lacking in, just focus on it and put yourself outside of your comfort zone.
