048-EN - Victoria Dunford (awarded by HM The Queen) about her amazing charity work

Victoria is a force of nature and she uses that for good. Her caring personality is shaping her work that is focused on helping others and especially those who don’t have options.

Victoria was born in Moldova and after finishing her studies in analytical chemistry degree, she moved temporarily to the UK for work experience. Meanwhile she met her husband and established her life in the UK , but her heart was always in Moldova.

A few years later she founded a charity called Mad-Aid, initially with the aim of shipping redundant equipment from hospitals in the UK (starting with hospital beds and wheelchairs) to Moldova and eventually to other countries too. But nearly 10 years later, the list of achievements is more than impressive as Victoria always dreams big and works even harder.

A published book Get Mad!: The Life and Times of a Madwoman that is also contributing to financing the charity, a medal from HM the Queen and other awards later, Victoria is still in the humble mode, always learning, always striving to make this world a better place and to help people in need.
