Caz Graham meets Hannah Jackson, a young shepherd shaking up the world of sheep. On a family holiday in the Lake District Hannah saw a lamb being born on a hillside. She was inspired to give up her studies in marine biology and dedicate herself to the world of shepherding. With help and advice from a champion sheepdog trainer she learnt how to herd sheep and set about transforming herself into a sheep farmer.

Hannah tells Caz about her struggles with the sexism of the farming industry and her hugely successful efforts to create a personal brand as The Red Shepherdess.
