On 26 February 2026, singer Beverley Knight MBE was named as an ambassador for the Wolves Foundation in Wolverhampton, West Midlands. This new role will see the local star help promote community programmes that support residents through music-led projects and mental health services.
Knight and her husband, James O’Keefe, previously raised money for the charity and the Good Shepherd by taking part in the Molineux Sleepout in November 2025. This event involved nearly 250 people sleeping outside at the football stadium during a storm to raise funds for those in need across the city.
The singer plans to focus her work on helping young people develop through music and supporting mental health initiatives like the Head 4 Health project. Her husband will also work with the group to focus on men’s mental health as part of the wider Supporting Our Pack campaign.
Knight joins other ambassadors including broadcaster Suzi Perry and former club captain Karl Henry in her new role. Local residents will have the chance to see the star perform when her current tour concludes at the University of Wolverhampton at The Halls in June 2026.
