Eleanor's articles mainly focus on healthcare, medical research, and public health issues within the United Kingdom. Her coverage emphasizes citing data and government announcements.

Given Eleanor’s extensive use of data and her focus on government announcements related to health, she would likely respond well to pitches offering exclusive access to new research findings, interviews with leading healthcare professionals or policymakers, or analyses of important public health trends specifically relevant to the UK.
