Jaime is the founder of 52 Lives - a charity and global movement that aims to change a life every week and spread kindness. What started as a simple Facebook page encouraging her friends and family to help people changed overnight after Jaime was featured on ITV's Surprise Surprise. Soon after, 52 Lives became a registered charity and now has almost 100,000 supporters around the world. Jaime is originally from Australia. She began her career as a journalist, before moving to the UK, where she worked for a Member of the European Parliament, a wildlife charity and an organisation that supported families of prisoners, while also volunteering as a Member of the Independent Monitoring Board for a local prison. She now runs the 52 Lives charity and also its School of Kindness. Jaime was named Clarins Most Dynamisante Woman of the Year in 2016. She also received a Points of Light Award from the UK Prime Minister and a Richmond Community Award for her work. She was named in The Independent's Happy 50 List in 2018, an alternative Rich List that celebrates people who make life better for others. Jaime's work has also been promoted by The Duke and Duchess of Sussex in celebration of organisations that create a sense of togetherness and community. Jaime lives in Berkshire with her husband Greig and her three children, Abbey, Max and Joseph. www.52-lives.org
