Autorenporträt

Anna has been supported and driven by the values of Caring Science throughout her nursing and voluntary sector career and continues to find it helpful in the ups and downs of everyday life. To her surprise and delight she is a doctorate graduate of the Watson Caring Science Institute. Born and bred in the North of England, the wild moors of Brontë Country is home to Anna. Love and nursing have taken her the length and breadth of Britain. She now lives in Dorset and seeks stillness in walking every day with her little dog Dot, in the gentle, rural landscape that inspired Thomas Hardy and T. S. Eliot.
