This has brought her alongside thousands of inspirational and dedicated charity workers on all continents and some of world's most vulnerable children.

Daniel Bedingfield

“Picking the right charity to give to is difficult. I need to know that my money will be spent wisely. I need to know that it will be used to help the children I’m giving to and not get lost in red tape. I trust the vision and ethos of Global Angels. I believe in their efficiency and their ability to make things happen.”

Daniel is a well known in the music industry as an international artist. He is also known for motivating people to make a difference in the lives of those who are suffering and wants to empower disadvantaged children and youth. He is an outspoken leader in the anti-trafficking campaign, Stop The Traffik, which is working to abolish the modern slave trade and to rescue victims of slavery, focusing on women and children. Being involved in the launch concerts for Global Angels in the UK and US have been highlights.  His recent trips to check out our work in Mozambique and Kenya were very successful in helping us establish that the funds we had sent over had been used well and that the projects were outstanding. We were then able to release the next phase of funding.
