Sir Roger Moore is best known for playing James Bond and The Saint in the internationally successful film and TV shows. One of Britain's most famous actors, he was knighted by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 2003 for his services to charity.
Sir Roger was introduced to UNICEF by the late Audrey Hepburn, who invited him to take part in an event alongside her. Since hearing her speak so passionately about UNICEF's work, Sir Roger and his wife, Lady Kristina Moore have worked tirelessly to promote the welfare and rights of children worldwide.
They have travelled all over the world to see UNICEF's work in action and Sir Roger has advocated with governments on the highest level. Sir Roger has also been a regular supporter of UNICEF’s corporate partnerships, supporting ‘Check Out For Children’ with Starwood Hotels in countries including Brazil, Mexico and Ethiopia.
Most recently Sir Roger and Lady Kristina visited Kazakhstan in 2010 to support the Special Olympics and meet children living with disabilities.
