At just 23 years old, Glasgow student Gemma Steele - who won the 2014 Young Scot Unsung Hero Award - is responsible for the wellbeing of 25 children at the orphanage she built in Nakuru, Kenya. Supported financially and practically by the people of Uist, St Jerome's Children's Home, which Gemma began building as a teenager, opened in 2012 and offers a loving home to children aged 4 to 18 who would otherwise be on the streets.

MacTV profiles this remarkable young humanitarian from South Uist, who has won the trust of orphans and the admiration of Scots countrywide, as she undertakes her latest project. We follow Gemma in Kenya as her new orphanage is built by Glasgow-based humanitarian design organisation Orkidstudio - providing beds for 40 children and with the space to expand.

Can they ensure the build is on track to completion within its tight eight-week deadline?
