To celebrate 10 Beautiful Years, Trilogy has launched our limited edition Helping Hand Wash. All proceeds from the sale of this product will go to Child's i Foundation.
Poverty, disease and rapid urbanisation contribute to a large number of children being abandoned, neglected and abused in Uganda.
Established by Lucy Buck, Child's i Foundation is helping to end the tragedy of baby abandonment in Uganda with projects to care for abandoned babies and vulnerable mothers and to place children in loving homes.
For several years my life was divided. I worked as a producer on high-profile TV shows and volunteered at an orphanage in Uganda.
In 2008, I buried a little boy called Abraham. He had been abandoned in a taxi park and died of Meningitis in an orphanage aged just 16 weeks. In his short life, no one had truly loved him.
I decided then to quit my TV career to establish the Child's i Foundation with the aim of helping ensure Abraham's tragic story wasn't repeated over and over again.
Our belief is that every child deserves to grow up in a family rather than in an institution.
