Future Voices Showcase Event

Sunday 2nd March 12-3pm, Wellcome Collection, London

Sounddelivery Media and The Voice of Domestic Workers invite you to join us for a special showcase event featuring talks, poetry, music and some surprises led by our incredible – and unstoppable – participants of our Future Voices programme. 

Future Voices is a unique leadership programme that aims to develop a network of confident and skilled migrant domestic workers as public spokespeople to amplify the injustices their community is facing. This showcase event is the culmination of the programme where our Future Voices Network will share their experiences and achievements. Many will be speaking in front of an audience for the first time. 

This year’s showcase event is extra special as it marks the final celebration of our three year partnership. During this time, 36 migrant domestic workers have completed the Future Voices programme. Join us in this meaningful celebration as they speak out about their journeys, achievements and stories that too often go unheard.

About the event organisers 

The Voice of Domestic Workers seeks to end discrimination and protect migrant domestic workers living in the UK by providing or assisting in the provision of education, training, healthcare and legal advice. They campaign to improve the living and working conditions of migrant domestic workers in the UK. As migrant domestic workers are one of the most vulnerable groups of workers, it is vital that their stories and experiences of injustice are heard, and listened to. 

Sounddelivery Media creates and facilitates bespoke capacity building programmes for  communities tackling inequality and injustice to develop networks of  visible public spokespeople. They work collaboratively with the community leaders to shape the programme.  The programme provides participants with the opportunity to take part in practical workshops on blogging, vlogging, interview preparation, campaigning skills, and presentation skills to ensure that they can influence the public conversation, policy and practice change confidently and effectively. The training the spokespeople receive builds their self-confidence and creates peer support networks that allow each individual to tell their own story and go on to support others.
