专家说明

Janet Lacey CBE (1903-1988) was appointed Director of Christian Aid in 1952 (at that time called Inter-Church Aid), and working from both Geneva and London during her 16 years in the role she would establish many important bodies, including Voluntary Service Overseas, and Christian Aid Week. The latter would raise over £2 million a year by the time she retired. In 1967, she became the first woman to preach in St Paul's Cathedral.
