In January 1989, Dawson became a main presenter of the then-new Central News South service for the South Midlands, alongside Wesley Smith. The presenting duo became the longest-serving partnership in ITV regional news. As well as presenting "Central News South", she presented non-news regional programmes including "Lifeline", "Central Post" and "Heart of the Country" (as a reporter).
Teaching career
In 2001, Dawson turned down a presenting role on the ITV News Channel with a view to presenting national news bulletins on ITV1. Shortly afterwards, she left "Central News South" and began training as a teacher, during which, she taught English Literature in several secondary schools.
