This year we have a fundraising target of £45,000 in support of Theatre Unlocked: Access for All.
We would like to:
- Expand our Relaxed Performance programme
- Continue to deepen our partnerships with local Special Educational Needs (SEN) schools
- Enhance our Access Hubs and provision for visitors with Access needs at our free outdoor arts festivals
- Develop our new Access & Inclusion Advocates programme
- Launch our new SEN Youth Theatre in early 2025
- Support the pilot of our Access Social Drop-Ins at Relaxed Performances
- Extend our SEN Internship Programme – our first internship in partnership with MENCAP is now underway
In our organisational plan, The Next Five Years, our Hippodrome Unlocked initiative is an unrivalled commitment to Access for All with an ambition to “become the most accessible venue of its scale in the UK, with a greater number of performances meeting the needs of different audiences.”
During our milestone 125th anniversary season our commitment to providing exceptional experiences and opportunities for vulnerable audiences is greater than ever. We are making a significant investment to further develop and deepen our accessibility provision. But to achieve our Access ambitions, we need your support more than ever and we very much hope that you will be part of that journey with us.
