Four decades rescuing animals in need

Pauline Leeson rehomed her first dog in her late 20's and it's since snowballed into one of the West Country's go-to animal rescue centres.

What started with Pauline Leeson rescuing and rehoming a handful of animals from her own home has grown over four decades to Holly Hedge Animal Sanctuary.

The sanctuary near Barrow Gurney has given thousands of dogs and cats a second chance, providing expert care, life-saving veterinary treatment and loving forever homes.

At the heart of it all is Pauline's lifelong passion for helping animals find happiness again.

She speaks to BBC Radio Bristol's Adam Crowther.
