Luke Evans has starred in blockbuster movies including The Hobbit and the Beauty and the Beast remake.
Having been introduced to Save the Children through his work with luxury jewellery brand, Bulgari, Luke became an official ambassador for Save the Children in 2016.

Since then, Luke has visited our UK programmes in his home-town in Wales and seen more of our work further afield in Pune, India. Our work there is developed in partnership with Bulgari.
“Seeing the impact that Save the Children’s programmes are having on the lives of these children is incredible," he said. "I’m so proud to be an Ambassador for Save the Children and Bulgari. My visit to India will stay with me forever.”
Luke has taken part in all our Selfish Mother fashion campaigns, and his 2017 jumper sold out in 24 hours. He very kindly recorded special footage for our Protecting Children in Conflict work in 2018.
More recently, Luke has been a major figure of our Christmas campaigns. In 2023, while starring in the West End production of Backstairs Billy, Luke helped launch the opening of our very own vintage Christmas jumper shop in Covent Garden. Then in 2024 he was in central London once again to switch-on the Covent Garden Christmas lights alongside fellow ambassador Myleene Klass.
