Anna Bawden is Health and Social Affairs Correspondent and Deputy Editor at The Guardian, where she covers the NHS, healthcare access, patient safety, mental health, cancer, dementia, and health inequality. Her reporting includes data-driven investigations such as a Guardian inquiry into violence against NHS staff and coverage filed from the European Congress on Obesity in Istanbul. Her byline also appears in The Observer Magazine.
Voices credited in their pieces. A reporter who has called someone before is likely to call them again.
Bylines and quoted sources are read automatically from UK coverage of the topics Vital Signs tracks, so this page reflects what our scan has read rather than a complete record. Where a biography and photograph appear, they are published by the outlet itself about its own correspondent, and linked above. Social accounts are not held: asserting an unverified one would attach a real person to an account that might not be theirs.
