On this week's Local Heroes Podcast, Chris and Dan sit down with the brilliant Hannah Graham, storyteller, illustrator, and former nurse, who’s swapped scrubs for sketchbooks and now spends her days lighting up classrooms, libraries and community halls with stories, doodles, and a lot of heart.
They chat about how Hannah went from the hospital ward to the world of children’s storytelling, why drawing was never a plan but more like a reflex, and how she somehow ended up with a career where imagination removes all barriers.
Also in this episode a fictional Greggs order inspired by a Cornish pasty and a live confession from Chris involving a smashed coffee percolator and a friend he hasn’t spoken to in 35 years. Anarchic, chaotic, and just the right amount of humanity, the way all good stories should be.
