Friends of
Indepen-dance
Indepen-dance celebrates 23 years of promoting inclusive dance and making a difference to people’s lives that have been touched by our work.
Friends of Indepen-dance was set up to mark the achievement of our 20th Anniversary and also to further promote and develop the work of Indepen-dance.
The purpose of the group is two fold: to spread knowledge and understanding of the work of Indepen-dance; and to raise funds. We need a source of reliable and continuing income to safeguard our work.
From as little as £5 a month, friends of Indepen-dance will be involved in the organisation and gain the following benefits:
• All friends will be invited to take part in, or to watch an open class.
• All friends will receive invites to previews.
• Friends will receive regular updates and newsletters about how we use the donations received.
• Friends will be offered reduced ticket prices to performances and events organised by Indepen-dance.
• All Friends of Indepen-dance will receive a 20th anniversary badge pin.
How would your donation help us?
• £5 a month provides visual props which allows those unused to dance to approach movement in a creative way.
• £10 a month allows a disabled dancer to travel from the fringes of the city and back with enough support to start their class with confidence.
• £34 a month will allow us to deliver 10 classes, or 1 term to a group of 25 dancers with learning disabilities.
• £136 a month will pay for 4 terms for a class to develop their skills and form strong friendships with one another.
