An account of a lone woman's indefatigable determination to make a difference, as she explores whether it's possible for an ordinary person to change the world, just a little, and if something so serious can be achieved with joy in one's heart.
'Sometimes you just have to do something, don't you? Sometimes an injustice comes along and you think 'No, this cannot be', and rather than just turn off the TV, you know it's time to act'. So begins Isabel Losada's extraordinary "For Tibet with Love" in which she explores whether it's possible for an ordinary person to change the world, just a little, and if something so serious can be achieved with joy in one's heart. From visits to Nepal and Tibet, to meetings with the Chinese ambassador and Tibetan awareness-raising groups, Isabel single-handedly hatches a stunning PR coup involving Nelson's Column, a 15 metre banner and a base-jumping parachutist that captured headlines worldwide. And then she meets the Dalai Lama Warm and funny, moving and thought-provoking, the astonishing "For Tibet with Love" celebrates the fact that we can make a difference.
