Ann Brogan

When Haitian seaman Philome Guerrier lost both his legs in an accident when he was docked in the UK, it was Ann Brogan of Southampton-based Sailors’ Society who offered him the support he needed. She kept in constant contact throughout his rehabilitation and the Sailors’ Society raised enough money for Philome to have artificial limbs fitted before he returned home. Ann has worked at the Sailors’ Society for almost 20 years supporting port chaplains around the world and one said that no problem was too big for her to fix.
