My life changed forever when I became the mum of three beautiful ex-battery hens, rehomed to me by the British Hen Welfare Trust. Far from being 'bird brained', they were intelligent, cheeky, loving animals. Immediately, I decided to raise awareness and money for the BHWT; so far this has involved, amongst other things, climbing three mountains in one day, swapping Stephen Fry a posh hotel stay for his Harry Potter audio boxset, becoming a BHWT volunteer coordinator & saving 4000 ex-bats from slaughter and, now, writing a book - Tales from the Coop: The joy of ex-battery hens.
