We work across Herefordshire & Worcestershire providing opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to take part in dance through our programme of classes, workshops, school & community projects and outdoor performance - supporting well-being, igniting curious minds and nurturing talent.

Situation
We believe that everyone should be able to access opportunities to take part in, see and experience extraordinary dance and movement opportunities and experience the benefits to their wellbeing, mobility, fitness and mental health. We sell tickets for some of classes and projects which cover the cost of that activity but we are also committed to providing subsidised work and free to access projects to ensure the widest possible range of people can benefit from dance. This requires fundraising.
Solution
There are three projects that require funding in order for Dancefest to deliver them; 1) New Parents Dance and Movement project with Worcester Community Trust; a weekly class with childcare provided to new parents' fitness, self esteem and mental health (with children 0-5) 2) 8 weekly children's classes across 5 Worcester Community Hubs for children and young people, all subsidised at £1 a session 3) Jigsaw - our weekly classes (in Hereford and Worcester) for adults with Learning Disabilities
