The BBC has made a documentary on Lisa French, a survivor of the 7/7 attacks on London, and a big supporter of MAG. The film is about her life since 2005, and how working with MAG has helped her overcome her fears. Lisa was hugely inspired by helping to build houses for landmine victims as part of MAG’s Community Challege Cambodia in March 2009.
