TOUCHLINES of FORTITUDE
Celebrating Female Resilience through Art, Sport & Storytelling
Touchlines of Fortitude is a visual arts and community engagement project celebrating female resilience, creativity, and empowerment through the lens of rugby and visual art. Timed to coincide with the 2025 Women’s Rugby World Cup, the project includes two exhibitions, a schools outreach programme, community storytelling events, and digital legacy content.
This is a unique opportunity to be part of a high-impact cultural project rooted in Twickenham, the symbolic home of rugby, engaging local communities and amplifying underrepresented voices
WHY NOW / WHY HERE / WHY US
Why Now?
The 2025 Women’s Rugby World Cup offers a once-in-a-generation opportunity to harness national attention around female participation, resilience, and representation. Running throughout September 2025, Touchlines of Fortitude will align with this global event, and extend its legacy beyond the pitch into local galleries, schools, and communities—inspiring the next generation of girls and women to push boundaries and share their stories.
Why Here?
Twickenham and the wider Richmond area are culturally vibrant, youth-rich, and home to a strong voluntary arts and sports network. Yet women—particularly neurodiverse and marginalised voices—remain underrepresented in both arts leadership and sport. This project responds directly to local priorities by:
-
Creating accessible, free-to-attend exhibitions and events
-
Platforming relatable role models
-
Partnering with schools and grassroots networks
