This is fundraiser where 50% or more (if you donate more!) of the ticket price will go to the charities -

The Freedom Theatre - Supporting young people in Jenin Refugee Camp, West Bank. From Mustafa Sheta (General Manager of TFT) - "Any money raised will help us with TheCine -Club - part of our work to create regular cultural and creative spaces for children and young people in Jenin, including young people from families displaced from Jenin Camp. Through film screenings and discussions, we want to give them opportunities to come together, discover Palestinian and international cinema, exchange ideas, and experience film not only as entertainment but also as a space for imagination, storytelling and dialogue. Around £500 could directly help us organise a series of screening and cover practical costs. Thank you so much thinking of us and for wanting to support our work, it genuinely means a lot. And I really hope the event goes brilliantly!"

Clowns without Borders - Anything raised will go towards our current project 'ReClaim Play'. This is Clowns Without Borders UK’s long-term expressive arts programme with children living in asylum accommodation in London. The age group is around around 3-12 years. We run weekly art sessions to support confidence, emotional wellbeing, connection, belonging. Sessions might involve arts and crafts, storytelling, games, movement, circus, drama,or a completely different direction suggested by the children.

One of the organisers of this event has worked with The Freedom Theatre in Jenin, and is currently working with Clowns without Borders on ReClaim Play.
