Katherine, who is originally from Kent, moved to London to attend drama school and stunned the audience to a standing ovation when she sang at the charity’s annual Spring Ball. Dedicating her performance of Amazing Grace to one very brave little girl that attends the School for Parents the room was moved to tears.

Katherine commented “I was honoured to perform at the Spring Ball and help support this wonderful charity. Grace’s story was truly moving so it was simply my pleasure to help, and after visiting the School for Parents I was so impressed with the work they do that I of course wanted to be more involved.”
