Ways to Support

As a charity, we rely on your support to help us create entertaining and thought-provoking theatre that reaches people in every kind of place; sharing exceptional stories, growing East Midland's talent and enabling underrepresented voices to shine.

Here are the different ways you can support…

INDIVIDUAL DONATIONS

As a charity, we rely on generous donations, no matter how much you can afford to give, as a one-off donation, through regular giving, or by fundraising for charity, your donation matters. Every donation helps us create entertaining and thought-provoking theatre that reaches people in every kind of place; sharing exceptional stories, growing East Midland's talent and enabling underrepresented voices to shine.

Easy Fundraising

This turns everyday online shopping into donations with over 7,500 brands donating a percentage of the amount you spend to New Perspectives to say thank you for shopping with them, without costing you a penny more. Simply join, go through easyfundraising first before you shop and this will generate free donations to support our programme of work.

FUNDERS, TRUSTS AND FOUNDATIONS

Support from Trusts and Foundations plays a vital role in supporting our work helping us to meet and deliver our artistic and strategic aims.

Attracting support from Trusts and Foundations helps several areas of our work including:
- the expansion of our Emerging Perspectives programme
- the development of new participatory projects
- touring and presenting high quality productions in communities who otherwise would miss out 
- making innovative new theatre programmes and productions possible

Funders, Trusts and Foundations play a vital role in bringing our extraordinary productions and life changing projects to people across the country.

Thank you to:
Arts Council England
The Garrick Charitable Trust
The D'Oyly Carte Charitable Trust


CORPORATE SUPPORT

Aligning your brand with New Perspectives gives you a direct connection to communities across the East Midlands and beyond, all sharing a commitment to artistic achievement and community enrichment. By working in partnership we can tailor-make a package that best meets your business needs with tremendous value through sponsorships and community recognition for your dedication and support.

In addition, Charity of the Year partnerships engage employees, motivating them to get involved and help reach a set goal. Nominating New Perspectives as your Charity of the Year will enable your company to form a strong link with developing creativity and at the same time generate funds to enable us to widen access to the arts. 

We offer unique opportunities for corporate opportunities designed to meet a wide range of marketing and promotional needs, communicating with audiences across a broad mixture of rural and urban locations throughout the East Midlands and beyond.

Thank you to:
Imperial Commercials

New Perspectives is grateful to all its supporters who, with their generosity, help us make our work both on stage and behind the scenes possible especially many volunteer promoters who help to make our work possible in rural and community settings.

 
LEGACY GIVING

By leaving a gift in your will you can help us to reach thousands of people living in rural locations, who will access our productions for years to come. And making a charitable bequest is not something that only wealthy people can do. Remembering New Perspectives with a gift in your will helps New Perspectives to plan for the future with confidence. If our work has inspired and entertained you over the years, leaving a charitable bequest in your will is one way for you to support what we do and ensure that New Perspectives continues to thrive in the future.

Leaving a legacy is something that absolutely anyone can do. Your most personal and lasting gift can be of any size; every donation helps and no amount is too small.
