We are raising funds towards an ambitious programme of activities in 2025, working towards a big show for over 30 group members. We want to have enough funds to do this despite a loss of core funding, offering a creative outlet and support to local mental health service users.

Stepping Out has been offering the joyous experience of participation in live theatre to mental health service users in Bristol and beyond for 27 years. With a loss of core funding in the last two years this has become increasingly difficult. Nevertheless we have survived and are beginning to thrive again. We hope to offer a more ambitious programme to more people in 2025.
We have a long tradition of large cast big shows which have been very popular with members. We aim to make this the focus of activities again in 2025. This will include an ambitious programme of workshops, including improvisation, devising, writing, and one to one sessions. Group members will be involved in early stages of a new big show, from developing ideas to contributing to the script. Social activities such as theatre trips and visits to other arts related events will also continue.
