Hannah King has been with BFBS over a decade. Starting as our North of England correspondent chasing new Gurkhas across training areas, she now specialises in features, with a particular interest in health and medicine.

When she’s not out filming for us she can usually be found racing dragon boats and eating cake (not at the same time).
