Lucy Buck swapped a successful career producing reality television for a life of purpose in Uganda helping orphan children. Love Island for a love of children. Lucy discovered that many of the orphanages operating in Uganda were in fact damaging to children and she was inspired to connect orphan children with loving alternatives and if possible helping them back to their families. Lucy’s ability to tell and share stories, like she had producing tv programmes, helped her to raise over £6 million over 11 years. These funds have helped to train foster carers, save and transform children’s lives and work with other agencies like UNICEF and Hope and Homes for Children to go a long way towards ending damaging institutional care.
