We're overjoyed to share some fantastic news with you.
Thanks to your generous donations, we've hit our target!
A heartfelt thank-you goes out to all who supported our 'Arts for Impact' campaign, spearheaded by the Big Give. We're thrilled to announce that we've not only reached, but surpassed, our goal of raising £10,000 in just one week. With the matching contribution from the Big Give, we now have a grand total of £20,000 to further our mission.
Your unwavering support and dedication has made this achievement possible, and we are truly grateful for your belief in our cause. Your contributions will enable us to expand our reach and continue making a positive impact through the power of music in Suffolk.
In addition, we're delighted to inform you that we're eligible to claim an additional £1,900 in Gift Aid on the donations received, which is truly remarkable.
Once again, thank you for your incredible support and commitment. Together, we are truly making a difference in our community.
With best wishes,
Emily Stubbs
Director of Development

The Big Give —
help us change lives in Suffolk through music!
One donation, twice the impact!
CAMPAIGN ENDS TUESDAY 26th AT 12 NOON!
We at Britten Pears Arts are very excited to let you know that we have been selected to participate in the Big Give’s Arts for Impact campaign.
That means that every donation made to our campaign via BigGive.org during the week of 19th to 26th March will be doubled. You can donate online from when the campaign starts at 12 noon on the 19th, and ENDS AT 12 NOON ON TUESDAY 26th. A representative from the Maltings will attend this coming Meet Up Mondays session (on the 25th) at The Golden Key (10:30 to 12 noon) to explain the match-funding campaign — all are welcome to attend!
[This is for the outreach support to several groups in the local community, including schools, older people, prisons and other groups. If you visit BPA's community-related webpages and/or email Lucy-Eve at Community@brittenpearsarts.org, you can learn more about their various initiatives, such as the Skylarks.]
At Snape Maltings, the Skylarks (in the image above) are a fun and friendly singing group for people living with Parkinson’s, and their companions. East Suffolk Skylarks groups use techniques, based on years of research, to help those with Parkinson’s to maintain or improve their psychological and physical wellbeing, through taking part in regular singing activity. Click here for more information about the Skylarks.
So if you have the capacity to donate, no matter what the amount, every pound will make double the difference in supporting us to continue changing lives in Suffolk through music.
