BBC Radio 5 Live - 2011 Changed My Life

Lesley Ashmall and Nick Garnett meet those whose lives have completely transformed in 2011

Lesley Ashmall and Nick Garnett meet people who have been through momentous change in the last 12 months. For good or bad reasons their lives will never be the same after 2011.

Every Christmas we all reflect on the past year, the achievements and the changes. However for a small number of people, this festive period finds them with a completely different set of circumstances from last year. Events, successes, failures, or single split second moments can
mean that their lives have changed in ways that give them a completely different view of the world.

They may be national names, they may have been at the centre of a news or sport story, or they may be completely normal with extraordinary circumstances, but the impact on their lives will have been
huge.

5 live reporters Lesley Ashmall and Nick Garnett find and meet these people, hear their stories, and discover what their future holds after a momentous year.
