Sarah and Brian explain how being part of Streetwise Opera gave them the confidence to ask for support, feel listened to and be treated with respect. A new world opened its doors, where people took them seriously and they were trusted.

We were thrilled to perform yesterday at Kew Gardens, sharing our Nature project with over 400 people. It was the ideal venue for us to raise our voices for climate justice, and to celebrate the natural world with music by Handel, Delibes and Britten. Thanks to all who attended! ❤️
