Jane Leighton (17 March 1944 – 4 July 2012) was an English healthcare campaigner and television producer. The oldest of three children, she abandoned school halfway through her studies to take up a secretarial course and her first job was as the secretary to the managing director of Anglia Television. Leighton's campaigning on healthcare issues began in 1974 at the British Pregnancy Advisory Service and successfully campaigned for improvements to services lacking their own lobbying group at the Liverpool Community Health Council. Her efforts impressed Granada Television who invited her to work on the news programme World in Action.
