Earlier this summer I chatted to Jack Linnell, Centre Director at St Giles Animal Centre and Rescue in Taunton, Somerset. Jack's family established the centre, so animal care and rescue are in his blood, so to speak, and his passion and compassion are clear in everything he says about his work and his life. Listen to this episode to find out more about Jack and the centre, including lots of valuable advice and tips for caring for your pet dog or cat.

My guest Emma Busby of Taunton-based homeless centre, Open Door, talks candidly about the homeless community in her home town and the work that goes on to help those who find themselves rough sleeping find their way back to permanent accommodation. Caring and compassionate, my chat with Emma is moving and uplifting, helped along, of course, by a little slice of something nice...aka CAKE.

My guest Kate Olver is an NHS midwife and also provides invaluable pre and post natel support to women in her local town of Taunton. As 'the village midwife', Kate ensures mums to be and new mums (and dads too of course), are equipped with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their baby's birth and care. But of course, things don't always go to plan... and neither to Kate's efforts at baking a lovely cake to enjoy as we talked!
