The causes I love…
Environmental
I’m passionate about the planet and would love to leave the world in a better (or at least as good as) state for our children and future generations. As a result I support these four environmental charities – together we can defend the natural world and stand for a green future.
Social
St. Mungo’s – outreach to the homeless, offering beds and support to homeless people in the UK. This charity works to prevent homelessness in the first place and support people in their steps to recovery.
Karen Street Children’s Trust – established in 1995 to rehabilitate children who had drifted on to the streets in a suburb of Nairobi, Kenya (called Karen). These children all came from very impoverished backgrounds and were living desperate lives surviving on whatever they could find. This is a charity dear to me as I grew up in Nairobi in Kenya.
Physical
MS Society – in 2020 I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I support this charity in their incredible research around MS – to ensure that everyone gets adequate MS treatment to stop or slow the disability’s progression.
