JKR continues her crusade against caged children
JKR continues her crusade against caged children According to a report today by The Sun, Gordon Brown has been pressing for change in Romania where children have, in some instances, been kept in cages. He will meet with Calin Popescu-Tariceanu while Jo Rowling will meet with Gordon Brown's wife, Sarah, in an attempt to better the situation.

A Downing Street insider said: "This is an issue which Sarah and JK are passionate about. They’ve been grateful for the willingness of the Romanian government to engage in serious discussion about it."

Jo has previously donated generously to this cause.
