Sian moves on

After more than six years, Sian Williams will shortly step down from presenting news bulletins on Channel 5. Dr Sian, 57, will continue to work with ITN and C5 on specials, including Mind Matters. 

“Broadcasting and psychology are, in some ways, complimentary - in both jobs we’re helping people tell their stories and giving them a voice,” she says “I’m excited about continuing to combine these elements, in new and different ways, while also delivering psychological support where it’s most needed.”

The tribute comes from ITN's (still) Deborah Turness: "Sian has brought warmth and humanity with a real ability to connect with our audience and understand what’s important to them.”
