Niall Harbison (Part One)

About this episode

Today, Em and Ray are in London’s Green Park with a man who has become a global hero to dog lovers everywhere… it’s Niall Harbison! 


Niall is a global sensation through his work with abandoned dogs in Thailand. After vowing to change his life after a severe alcohol addiction left him on the brink of death - Niall found his calling feeding, rescuing and sterilising dogs. Now with over 1.2 million Instagram followers - Niall has inspired people across the world to be kinder to dogs. 


In this part of our chat, we discuss Niall’s childhood and the effect of seeing his mum as a victim of domestic abuse, what it was like working as a private chef for one of the founders of Microsoft and how reaching rock bottom helped him find his calling.
