JW3’s CEO Raymond Simonson said, “This is set to be the biggest, starriest event in JW3 history. We are hugely excited to be bringing together so many incredible guests for this uniquely special evening, all of whom have generously donated their time.

“We hope to raise a significant amount of money to help support our vital charitable activities”.

During lockdown, JW3 has run online events and courses, launched a digital hub for the community, as well as providing 30,000 meals for the needy.

Simonson added: “These are not easy times for anyone and JW3 is fortunate to have an incredible network of friends and supporters. Without that support, JW3 could not carry on. This is a free event for everyone to join from the comfort of their own homes. All we’re asking is that people dig deep and give what they can afford. The donations given on the night will be vital for securing the future of JW3.”
