Dame Harriet Walter Presents Clean Break’s Charity Appeal on BBC Radio 4

We are proud to have been selected to broadcast a charity appeal on BBC Radio 4

Hear Clean Break Patron Dame Harriet Walter deliver our appeal message on Radio 4 on Sunday 20 October and Thursday 24 October.

In the appeal, Harriet shares some of actor and Clean Break Member artist, Jennifer Joseph’s story. Jen has generously shared some of the challenges she faced both in and outside prison, and how Clean Break helped her to turn her life around.

In 2012, Harriet and Jen performed together in Julius Caesar at the Donmar Warehouse, part of the all-women Shakespeare trilogy directed by Phyllida Loyd, which makes this appeal message all the more special.

“This could not be a better place to put your charitable gifts. I’ve watched this work for 30 years, growing from an idea to a very professional theatre company, with outreach beyond most institutions.” - Dame Harriet Walter

We are very grateful to Harriet for delivering the message, which will be heard by listeners across the country. This appeal will introduce Clean Break to new audiences and raise much needed funds, which will enable us to continue our life changing work, reaching more women like Jen.
