A woman from Liverpool whose life took an unexpected turn said she would "never ever" have imagined her new life, which she calls "so rewarding".
Rachel Aspinall, 56, lived on Endfield Park, Aigburth until she was 22. Now she lives 10,000 miles away in the hinterland of Australia's Sunshine Coast, near Brisbane, and works a job that is a far-cry from the IT and Teaching degree she studied at the University of Liverpool.
Rachel is a licensed Koala carer and has recently been fighting to establish a new enclosure for the injured and sick animals she looks after. A new jubilee gift from the Australian Government to the Queen, in the form of a donation the charity Rachel works with, will finally allow this to happen.
