Day of the Girl
Bree Runway, Connie Constance, Matilda Mann and RØRY are all set to perform intimate live shows in venues across London throughout the week commencing 7th October in support of War Child.
The deadliest crisis for children this century.
Children in Gaza are trapped, traumatised and dying from starvation. Endless attacks have killed thousands, and left those remaining terrified for their lives.
War Child is in Gaza. Our local staff are working tirelessly to provide life-saving food, clean water and mental health first aid to children who are in desperate need.
But every day the situation becomes more and more critical for children for our staff.
A donation from you will help us reach even more children in Gaza and the West Bank with life-saving support.
We can’t do it without you.
