As the direct result of a life-changing encounter with a young streetchild in Bombay Churchgate station in 1989, David Maidment set about finding out how to help such exploited and vulnerable children, leading to his founding of the Railway Children charity in 1995. David reflects in this book on that journey and the way the initial idea grew into what is currently a 3million a year turn-over charity working through many partners with street and runaway children in India, East Africa and in the United Kingdom. The book, as well as being a very personal account of his experience, seeks to identify the reasons why the charity has been so successful and the lessons learned on the way. All royalties from this book will be donated to the Railway Children charity
