Hi all,
I worked in Corporate Fundraising, 1995-2000. While on maternity leave from Save the Children, I started writing a biography of Eglantyne Jebb. ‘The Woman Who Saved the Children’ won the Daily Mail Biographers Club Prize and has so far been translated into Korean and Spanish. All author royalties are donated to Save the Children, raising over £10k to date. I am delighted that the book will be republished next year with a new cover to mark the Fund’s centenary. It is already listed on Amazon, and should be in book shops from April, so please do take a look, and ask for a copy if your local shop or library doesn’t already stock it!
My two subsequent books, ‘The Spy Who Loved’ and ‘The Women Who Flew for Hitler’, explore the experiences of Britain’s first female special agent in WW2, and the only two women to serve as test pilots for the Third Reich.
I am looking forward to supporting the Fund’s centenary in a variety of ways next year, and hope to meet some of you then.
All best, Clare
