As long as hospitals have existed, there have generally been chaplains on hand to help patients and their families come to terms with their illnesses. More recently, clerics from other faiths - like Islam, and Hinduism - have also been represented. But now Leicester's hospitals think they've become the first in the country to offer a non religious chaplain. Jane Flint started work this week, and our reporter Jo Hollis went to meet her on her first day - as well as the head of the chaplaincy team, Mark Burleigh.
