Anne Campbell Gunn
Founder and CEO of Three Nines Children’s Charity
Anne Campbell Gunn is the founder and Chief Executive of Three Nines Children’s Charity, an organisation dedicated to providing early emotional and practical support to children and families affected by crime and trauma. With a career spanning journalism, police communications and nearly fourteen years in the charity sector, Anne has devoted much of her professional life to helping vulnerable people.
After becoming the first female news editor at the Cambridgeshire Times, Anne moved into senior communications roles within policing before making a significant career change in 2012. Taking a substantial pay cut, she became Chief Executive of Child Victims of Crime, where she spent twelve years expanding the charity’s reach and raising awareness of the needs of children affected by serious crime.
Following a difficult professional setback in 2024, Anne founded Three Nines Children’s Charity, turning adversity into an opportunity to make a difference. Through initiatives such as its ‘Calm and Care’ packs and Listening Ears service, the charity provides vital support to children experiencing trauma, with Anne now working towards expanding its reach nationally.
To date, Anne’s work reflects a lifelong commitment to fairness and the belief that even the most difficult circumstances can create opportunities for positive change.
