At 15 years-old, Sabrina Cohen-Hatton was a homeless teenager in South Wales. She spent two years living on the streets and in derelict buildings - often eating food out of bins. Sabrina, now Doctor Cohen-Hatton, tells 5 Live's Sarah Brett the extraordinary story of how she turned her life around - to become one of the country's most senior firefighters.
