OUR TEAM
Hannah Dobbs
Director
For the past 19 years, Hannah has been dedicated to supporting looked-after children, taking on a range of roles, including management and senior leadership. Her journey started in the USA, where she developed a strong passion for supporting children and families. After returning home, she continued working with children in various social care settings, with a key focus on children's residential families—but she still frequently travels to the USA to work in children's summer camps. Hannah is especially passionate about training parents, carers, and professionals to understand developmental trauma and how to provide therapeutic parenting. She also works directly with children in schools and other settings.
