Rosamund Holland-Martin
Dame Rosamund Mary Holland-Martin, DBE, DL (26 June 1914, London – 18 June 2001), née Hornby, was a long-term leader and fund-raiser for the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
==NSPCC==
She led the NSPCC as Chairman of the Central Executive Committee for nearly two decades (1969 - 1988). During her 40 years with the charity she played a crucial role in the establishment of the NSPCC's position as Britain's leading child protection organisation, and helped to engineer its development into a modern professional body.
She personally played a significant part in fund-raising in 1984, the organisation's centenary. She was the prime mover in persuading the Duke of Westminster to chair its Centenary Appeal in 1984. This was the largest charitable appeal ever planned and executed in the UK and, because of its success, it became a blueprint for other charities, such as Great Ormond Street Hospital. The Centenary Charter set the agenda for the future direction of the society. After 19 years in the chair she retired in 1988, but she never lost interest and she continued to attend meetings and speak whenever invited. By the time she left, the NSPCC had increased the funds it raised from under £500,000 in 1947 to more than £20 million a year.
