This BBC Three documentary, Small Teen, Big World, followed Jasmine (Jazz) on a life-changing journey as she leaves Colwyn Bay to study animal welfare at a residential college. Born with a rare form of dwarfism, Jazz never let challenges hold her back.
Her childhood was marked by absence - her mother, Bev, asked Jazz’s father to stay out of their lives due to his struggles with drug addiction. Years later, he appeared in a BBC documentary about homelessness and substance abuse. In the first episode, Jazz bravely meets her estranged father for the first time.

Tragically, Beverley died in 2013, and Jasmine passed away in 2022, but their story of resilience, ambition, and love for animals continues to inspire. This series is a tribute to their remarkable spirit.
