Welcome
Welcome to the website of UK-based presenter, investigative journalist and writer, Jane Deith.
Investigative journalist, presenter & writer
I'm an investigative journalist working for some of the best current affairs programmes in the business.
A presenter of BBC Radio 4's award-winning documentary series File on 4, my exclusives include the stories of women tricked into sexual relationships with undercover police, and the former detective who blew the whistle on failings in the Rochdale child grooming investigation.
I'm a familiar face on Channel 4 News, with a particular focus on social affairs and health. I also appear on the Today programme, 5 Live and the BBC World Service.
An experienced foreign correspondent, I've reported from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Liberia, Ivory Coast and Senegal.

No place to call home
A record 142,000 children are stuck in temporary accommodation in England. B&Bs, hotels, old office blocks -even shipping containers - it’s meant to be a short term safety net.
But it’s not short term - thousands have been there for more than five years - and often it’s not safe.
They’ll tell you what it’s like growing up in these places here.
