From Rio with Rhythm and Heart
January 22, 2026
Liverpool Ambassador Sophie Clarke, making waves in more ways than one.
At 5.30 this morning, as the mist gently lifted over Sugarloaf Mountain, Rio de Janeiro - one of Liverpool Heartbeat’s brightest stars stood tall on deck—Sophie Clarke, our extraordinary ambassador, bringing music and magic to passengers aboard her cruise ship.
Sophie isn’t just entertaining the world with her incredible voice—she’s carrying the spirit of Liverpool Heartbeat across oceans. Her dedication, warmth, and talent embody everything we stand for. Whether she’s singing under Brazilian skies or mentoring young voices back home, Sophie is the beating heart of our charity.
We couldn’t be prouder. Keep shining, Sophie. You’re making waves in more ways than one.
