Save the Children's original founder was a remarkable spinster in a brown cardigan whose most famous line, 'I don't care for children' makes hers a most unconventional story.

Clare Mulley's sensitive, entertaining, and beautifully written biography reveals a life full of humour and tragedy, passion and pain, and casts an enlightening insight into the development of the charity we know today.

Clare Mulley

Clare Mulley joined Save the Children as a corporate fundraiser in the 1990s. She is the mother of three daughters and currently lives in Essex, UK.

While working as a fundraiser at Save the Children Clare Mulley came across a note written eighty years earlier by the organisation's founder- 'the world is not ungenerous, but unimaginative, and very busy'.

She has since been fascinated by Eglantyne, sleeping in her childhood nursery, rifling through her journals, and even buying her signature on eBay.
