As many of you know, Sandy spent several amazing years working for the Young Vic. She asked us to collect donations for their Taking Part initiative, as it reflects her passion for the arts, for community and for people having the chance to find their own voice through creativity.

The Young Vic have also provided us with lots of support in organising and hosting Sandy's celebration of life. In their words:

"Taking Part is our Creative Engagement Department, committed to working with young people, adults, schools, and our local community. For 27 years, the Young Vic has fostered deep, lasting relationships with the communities of Southwark and Lambeth. Each year, we connect with over 15,000 individuals, offering free tickets to all our performances and providing creative and artistic opportunities that empower our participants to create, learn, and grow.

Our work is driven by three key strands: Learning, Participation, and Neighbourhood Theatre. These initiatives form the core of our organisation, with Taking Part’s annual program revolving around a central theme. Last year, we focused on 'Home, History, and Heritage,' and this year we are exploring the theme of 'Freedom of Expression.'"

Thank you so much for donating today and supporting this cause that Sandy deeply cared about.
