More than a decade after being fatally shot by Taliban while delivering aid in Afghanistan, an inspirational doctor is still helping to support disadvantaged children in the war-torn country, through the legacy she has left.
Karen Woo, who grew up in Stevenage and attended The Barclay School, was shot dead in August 2010 while on a trip with charity International Assistance Mission to reach villagers in desperate need of medical help.
She was killed along with nine others of the mostly American team, two weeks before she was due to get married.
