We are thrilled to announce that Dara Ó Briain has become our newest Ambassador.
Dara first supported The Passage in 2020 and has headlined our popular comedy night, Laughter to the Rafters, every year since its launch in 2022, helping the event to sell out whilst bringing an exciting line-up of supporting acts to the stage of the Comedy Store London each October.
As a passionate advocate for The Passage’s mission, Dara actively supports our fundraising campaigns, including our annual Christmas Big Give. He also represented The Passage at the ICAP Charity Day in 2020, helping to amplify our efforts to end homelessness.
Earlier this month, he visited The Passage’s Resource Centre, volunteering his time in our kitchen on Giving Tuesday, helping to prepare and serve a hot and nutritious meal to those who have been impacted by homelessness in London.
During his recent visit he told us: “This is the topic that always be very close to my heart, probably because, as someone who travelled to the big city, I’m very aware of the good luck I’ve had and the other luck that people may not have had in terms of making a life here.”
“It’s something I’ve always wanted to give back to, enabling people to find homes themselves and by doing so much more.”
“I am delighted to be an ambassador of The Passage, supporting their excellent work and the invisible population living on our capital’s streets.” – Dara Ó Briain, Ambassador of The Passage
How can you help to prevent and end homelessness in London?
Homelessness is a complex societal issue, which requires a whole of society response. At The Passage, we are working hard to prevent homelessness wherever possible, but we cannot end it without your support.
Everyone has a role to play.
