Rhoda Ofori-Attah

Rhoda Ofori-Attah is not the first member of her family to enjoy BAFTA’s support. Her sister, Grace, a writer, took part in the Elevate programme in 2018. The experience was clearly positive enough to convince Rhoda to apply in 2019. Born in Ghana but raised in the UK, mainly in Yorkshire, Rhoda trained at the Oxford School of Drama.

She made her small screen debut in 2005 in Rose and Maloney (ITV), before landing roles in The Bill (ITV), Grownups (BBC Three) and Coronation Street (ITV). Next came the character of Edith in two episodes of Last Tango in Halifax (BBC) in 2016, and then Stella in Silent Witness two-parter ‘Remembrance’ (BBC) a year later. Roles in feature film Tulip Fever (2017) and television series Trust Me (BBC), Cold Feet (ITV), Doctors (BBC) and Holby City (BBC) soon followed. She also appeared in Informer (BBC), Dark Heart (ITV) and Temple (Sky) in 2018-2019.

Rhoda then landed the role of Miss Griffiths in the critically-acclaimed Top Boy (Netflix) in 2019, adding to her teleography with a guest spot in season three of another Netflix favourite, Sex Education, in 2021. In between, she starred in Uberto Pasolini’s film, Nowhere Special (2020), with James Norton.

In 2023, she was longlisted for Best Actress for the short Dream Big (2022) at the British Short Film Awards. That year proved to be particularly busy, with further parts in You and Shadow and Bone, both for Netflix, and as Molly in the most recent adaptation of Great Expectations (BBC/Hulu). She will soon be seen in Emmerdale (ITV), appearing in a three-episode arc directed by fellow Elevate recipient Manjinder Virk.

Rhoda recently wrapped on voiceover for two documentaries and is continuing to develop her writing, including penning a picture book for children.

Rhoda is represented by Julie Gordon & Gavin Mills at Olivia Bell Management.
