Pauline Joy Charles has an inauspicious start in life - she is the product of a rape and is abandoned by her Nigerian mother at just a few weeks old. She spends her first few years being cared for by white foster families until at the age of four she is sent to live in the Dr Barnardo's village in Essex.
