Oarsome Chance is proud to have its own unique approach to ambassadors.
The ‘Oarsome Poet’ aka Woodzy is supporting us to champion the work of the charity in promoting a different way to educate young people.
Woodzy is an award winning Flo Poet, 3x TEDx Speaker and winner of UK unsigned 2019. As seen on BAFTA winning TV show "Life And Rhymes" also on Sky Sports "Fight Night" Live at Wembley Arena.
Woodzy was always destined to become a Poet, being born on World Poetry Day. From studying at the Brit School, to opening for the likes of Stormzy and being on BBC1Xtra & BBC Radio London. From having a poem on the tour of the Tower of London, to reaching over 1 million views on his poem "90s baby".
Woodzy captivates his audience with witty wordplay, incredible use of language and relatable topics.
Woodzy is a huge advocate for poetry and young people's connection to it. Aside from performing, Woodzy facilitates a variety of workshops in schools, colleges & workplaces and looks to change people's perspective on poetry.
Woodzy said of his visit to Oarsome Chance "its brilliant to see a creative site and team of people working to support young people in a way that suits them best".
Oarsome Chance is really excited for our new collaboration with Woodzy, our Oarsome Poet.
We are looking forward to exploring our collaboration, not only through spoken word workshops with our own young people, but by bringing his unique approach to helping us promote a different approach to education.
