Dr Hannah Bowden

I am a qualitative researcher based in the UK. I have a passion for young people and social justice, with a particular interest in young people in the care system. You can learn more about me and my research journey by clicking on the ‘About’ tab above.

I studied at the University of Birmingham between 2013 and 2023, culminating in my ESRC-funded PhD titled ‘Mapping the Virtual School Ensemble: The Role of Loss, Grief, Love, and Care’. You can read more about my PhD and other work in the ‘Publications’ tab above.

I currently work, part-time, as a Senior Researcher for a Christian youth work charity and as an Independent Panel Member for a not-for-profit fostering agency. Alongside this, and my other voluntary roles, I offer freelance research services which you can read more about in the ‘Freelance Research’ tab above.

I am keen to grow my connections with other researchers and practitioners in this field. If you’d like to be in touch, please use the ‘Contact’ tab above.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my website.

I look forward to connecting with you.

Hannah
