Olwyn Supports Sting at The Young Vic

Olwyn was proud to support STING at The Young Vic, with a special evening that brought together guests for the performance, alongside a reception and a post-show discussion featuring playwright Sophie Swithinbank and leading voices in women's justice including: solicitor and human rights lawyer Harriet Wistrich and Katy Swaine Williams of the Centre for Women’s Justice and Victims Commissioner for London Andrea Simon.

The conversation explored the urgent themes at the heart of STING and highlighted the powerful alignment between the play and the Olwyn Foundation's commitment to tackling violence against women and girls. It is a wonderful example of how philanthropy can bring urgent stories to life while creating opportunities for deeper conversation and impact.

“Storytelling is a profound transformative medium and Sophie Swithinbanks’ powerful piece delivers a potent theme for discussion and action. Olwyn is proud to support this urgent conversation to remind us that we are all part of this dialogue, both personally and within our communities” Samantha Rowe-Beddoe, Founder, Olwyn Foundation

“I am so grateful for Olwyn’s contribution to Sting, and so pleased to have such an inspiring group of women involved behind the scenes of the show” Sophie Swithinbank
