OLIVIA COLMAN NAMED PATRON OF TENDER

Supporting Tender's Work Preventing Domestic and Sexual Violence

Tender is proud to announce that Olivia Colman has been named a Patron of the organization.

"I believe that the work Tender is doing with young people, educating them about healthy and unhealthy relationships, is important, inspiring and imperative. Domestic violence prevention education can make a real difference in the lives of young people, and I am happy to give my support to an organisation that is pioneering this effort."

Chief Executive of Tender, Susie McDonald has made this statement regarding Olivia Colman's Patronage:

"Tender is thrilled to have the support of Olivia Colman! We are excited that she stands behind the work we do preventing domestic and sexual violence in the lives of young people here in the UK. We look forward to welcoming Olivia to future events and further developing the relationship."
