The evening will be attended by Feathers Ambassador and BAFTA-nominated Actress Keeley Hawes. Keeley who stars in the recent Netflix film SCOOP. Keeley attended the Feathers’ Community Centre in Marylebone, London throughout her childhood, and is a passionate advocate for the work we do.

Throughout the evening guests will be treated to a series of special performances including a private 30-minute concert by Ecoflix Ambassador and multi-Grammy-nominee Leona Lewis, OBE. Leona is well known for her philanthropy. She is Trustee of Hopefield Animal Sanctuary in Essex, and has helped raise significant funds and awareness for numerous important causes. She was awarded her OBE in the 2024 New Year’s Honours list for services to Music and Charity.

There will also be some magic injected from Birmingham Royal Ballet who will share captivating moments from their critically-acclaimed Ballet - David Bintley’s ‘Still Life’ at the Penguin Café. Featuring a morris-dancing flea, a ballroom-dancing ram, a hoe-downing rat, a majestic zebra and many more, this is an ‘unforgettable’ (Sunday Times), witty and enjoyable, yet bittersweet and poignant look at human impact on the world.

While former JLS singer, Marvin Humes will be encouraging everyone to hit the dance floor as he takes centre stage as DJ to round off the evening! Marvin supports numerous charities, and co-founded the JLS Foundation when he was in the band, which continues its important work supporting six UK charities. He is dedicated to making an impact and we’re delighted he is supporting the Feathers first inaugural Animal Ball.
