The Guardian’s Hannah Jane Parkinson has won the coveted journalist of the year prize at the Mind Media Awards.
The Mind Media Awards recognise and celebrate the best possible representations of mental health across TV, radio, print and online. The journalist of the year award is presented to an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to the understanding of mental health issues.
Hannah won for challenging the mental health conversation with her timely piece ‘It’s nothing like a broken leg’. The article explores the complexities of mental health problems, diagnosis and treatment and looks at how no one person, viewpoint or narrative can monopolise the topic.
