About the Author(s)
Hannah Barnes is an award-winning journalist at the BBC’s flagship current affairs programme Newsnight. She led its coverage of the care available to young people experiencing gender-related distress, which helped precipitate an extensive NHS review and unearthed evidence that was later used in several sets of legal proceedings. Newsnight’s reporting also led directly to an inspection by the healthcare regulator the Care Quality Commission, which branded GIDS, the NHS’s only youth gender clinic in England, ‘Inadequate.’ The work was nominated for an array of awards, including the prestigious RTS Television Journalism Awards.
Over the past decade and a half, Hannah has specialised in investigative and analytical journalism, and has spent many years reporting, editing and producing a variety of the BBC’s most respected long-form programmes and documentaries. She lives in London with her husband and two children.
