Performing in the stage play Traffik a few years ago was the first time I became aware of what a problem child exploitation was, even in the UK, where we might not expect it. Having watched some TV programmes recently (some fact, some fiction) and read articles about recent findings in regards to this and the little that sometimes appears to have been done to combat this throughout the country, I wanted to do something to help. Hence, I've decided to run the London Marathon for The Childrens Society who do such valuable work combatting child sexual exploitation.

Any little you could give is much appreciated.

My childhood meant I didn't have to consider these things and that should be the same for all children.
