Chatterbox - Shannon Griffin interviews someone of whom Sir Richard Branson said "Initially, when you meet her, you just wonder if she's too good to be true". Hillary Clinton said, "she has accomplished so much and she has inspired so many people along the way, but she's also great fun" and Larry King, described her as "a dynamic personality with a wealth of knowledge about global humanitarian issues".
She has raised millions of pounds for good causes, not least of which includes 18 million pounds for landmine clearance.
She's brought the plight of the disabled to greater public attention and championed veganism for the benefit of individual health and the planet.
She's a philanthropist, charity, fundraiser, activist, campaigner, and mother. I'm delighted to welcome Heather Mills.
