Hello

Hannah Taylor-Slaymaker & Sally Taylor-Slaymaker - Directors of Broad Horizons

Together, Hannah and Sally bring over 45 years of combined experience in social care, social work, leadership and therapeutic services to Broad Horizons. Their backgrounds blend expertise in supporting children, families, and adults with complex needs, alongside a deep commitment to wellbeing, development, and children's rights.

Hannah Taylor-Slaymaker
Hannah’s career spans over 20 years, with a foundation in working with children on the autistic spectrum and those with behavioural challenges. This led to her qualification as a social worker in 2008. Hannah has extensive experience in social work, focusing on Looked After Children, youth offending, and supporting children’s rights. She has held roles in management with organisations such as Action for Children, The NSPCC, and local authorities, alongside working as an independent reviewing officer and Service Manager in both Northampton and London boroughs.

Hannah’s passion lies in working with teams to develop services that meet the needs of both children and adults, ensuring that every individual’s voice is heard and valued. With a focus on wellbeing, she has implemented innovative therapeutic practices, including sensory and wellbeing gardening for children and adults. Currently, she is studying a diploma in garden design to incorporate this into her work, particularly with those with special educational needs (SEN).

In her personal time, Hannah enjoys spending time with her family, paddle boarding, gardening, and enjoying a good movie and coffee.

Sally Taylor-Slaymaker
With 25 years of social work experience, Sally has worked across both the Local Authority and Charity sectors, providing support to children, families, and carers in navigating life-changing decisions. Her early career focused on Looked After Children, where she worked directly with young people, shaping permanency plans and ensuring their voices were central in the decision-making process. Since 2010, Sally has been a Service Manager at Action for Children, overseeing high-level family support, family group conferencing, and disability services.

For the past six months, Sally has worked as an Agency Decision Maker (ADM) at Capstone Fostering Agency, ensuring robust, child-centred decision-making in foster care approvals and reviews. She has also worked as an independent social worker, delivering assessments for prospective foster carers and providing training on sexual abuse, safer care planning, and disability services.

Sally brings a wealth of experience in team leadership, management, and ensuring that services are focused on the needs of children and families. Her extensive training and expertise have made her an advocate for children’s rights, safeguarding, and the development of therapeutic environments.

Together, Hannah and Sally are dedicated to ensuring that Broad Horizons provides the best possible outcomes for children, families, and professionals alike. They are committed to fostering a culture of wellbeing, development, and inclusion, both within their team and the services they deliver.
