Shy Keenan and Sara Payne 10 August 2009
Shy Keenan and Sara Payne
Campaigning for victims of child sex abuse

Shy Keenan and Sara Payne had both been in the public eye following tragic events. Shy had won justice in court, putting her stepfather behind bars following years of sexual abuse; Sara was mourning the loss of her beloved daughter Sarah who was kidnapped and murdered. United by tragedy, they have managed to forge an amazing friendship which also facilitates their work as advocates for victims of child sexual abuse via their organisation, The Phoenix Chief Advocates. They both join Sheila to talk about how their friendship gives them strength, and enables them to keep fighting against child sex crimes.

'Where Angels Fear', by Shy Keenan and Sara Payne, is published by Hodder and Stoughton ISBN: 9780340937457
