Description

John Peel first brought Judy’s moving childhood story to light on Home Truths. Abducted by her psychotic spiritualist father and kept like a dog in his backyard, she suffered in a Manchester orphanage run by nuns before being taken to South Africa. There she ended up living wild on the streets. Today Judy has founded 7 centres for street children.

After a childhood lived in terror, in 1994 Judy was presented with an Unsung Heroes Award for her charity work with street kids in South Africa. Her moving story came to light after Judy was interviewed by John Peel on BBC’s Home Truths. ‘Street Kid’ is the inspirational and heart wrenching story of her early years.
