Poetry, Photography and Art by street children globally
In collaboration with Street Child United
In May 2018, Samantha Richards was chosen for the Street Child World Cup
in Moscow, representing team England, but found she wasn't prepared for the emotional side of the tournament. Captivated by the stories of the street-connected children from all around the world, Samantha started to
put together their poems and drawings into a book, bringing together the voices of young people from across the world. Samantha knew this would be a book filled with hope and truth.
Here is that hope. Remember: We Are All Somebody.
'Samantha is an inspiration and the perfect example of how much someone can achieve when they are given the opportunity to fulfil their potential. 'We Are All Somebody', is a powerful collection of stories and experiences that give a voice and identity to so many who have previously remained unheard. Readers will be motivated to pursue change by fighting for the rights of these young people.'
- Olivia Rae, Former Scotland International Cricketer and SCU Ambassador
'"We Are All Somebody" is a truly inspiring insight into the lives of these young men and women, the injustices they endure and the hope they maintain. We must acknowledge their struggle, hear their voices and be part of the change.'
- Ella Masar, Former Professional Footballer and SCU Supporter
