Available for over a year

A woman with terminal cancer has found meaning in life by looking after hedgehogs. Sue Bonnington from Glen Parva has been rescuing hedgehogs for many years and currently rescues about 45 a year. When diagnosed with her terminal cancer she described it as 'strangely freeing' but says she doesn't want to know how long she has left to live. The 58-year-old has been raising awareness in her local community by encouraging people to put holes in their fences to create a hedgehog network. 麻豆社 Radio Leicester's Ben Jackson met Sue at her home.
