TICKETS

Sliding scale £10-£30 donation (suggested donation £16)
Suggested Donation (£16)
This amount allows us to sustain these offerings & nurture this beautiful growing community. A huge thank you for your support in helping us do so!

Pay It Forward (~£30)
An amount donated at this end of the scale provides access & support to those who would otherwise not be able to attend. For those in our community who are experiencing the joy and privilege of financial abundance, we thank you for your generosity in moving resources towards those who need them!

Concession (~£10)
This end of the scale is for those experiencing financial hardship who would benefit from the support of the community. We aim to make our events as accessible as possible, regardless of finances, and never want money to be a barrier to participation. If this amount is not accessible for you, please donate an amount outside of the scale that is sustainable for you. No-one will be turned away due to lack of funds.

Community Patron Donation £30-£100
Donating an amount within this scale will massively help grow this project, enabling us to provide more events & offerings, and reach & support more people. This money goes towards buying new equipment, marketing and (most importantly) time for our team to spend on this project and away from their 9-5. An enormous thank you for your generosity, and we hope to also offer additional perks for patrons at some point in the future (watch this space!).
