We are overwhelmed and humbled by the love and grief shared for Sarah by everyone here. Thank you. For those asking, we’ll update when there are any news on an event celebrating Sarah’s life & legacy and an online condolences book for the family will be set up in the coming days.

In the meantime, Sarah’s son, the wonderful Ben, is raising money for St. Christopher’s Hospice, who supported Sarah towards the end.

We are heartbroken to deliver the news that this weekend Sarah Davey-Hull, BOLD's founder & Artistic Director has passed away.

Sarah was a leader, a true champion of others, who directed, taught and nurtured with an open heart, a creative mind and boundless amounts of humour. She was also a dear, beloved friend. We are aching.

Our love and thoughts are with her family.

[image description:] A poster of seven images around a black border. The top two images are of someone walking inside with a duvet wrapped around them, the second is of Enyi Okoronkwo with his hand clenched holding his chin. The middle three images consist of from left to right, Julene Robinson looking down with her hands on a table, Illona Linthwaite sitting with one arm pointed up and Chris Fonseca outside a building with a fire escape staircase behind him. The bottom two images are of Phoebe Naughton with a scarf tied around her head holding a cup of tea and then an image of some old photographs, tea light candles, pots and an old red brick.

In BOLD letters over the top of these images it says:
