Comments Off on Theatre Porto selected by The Big Give to double donations

Theatre Porto selected by The Big Give to double your donations – Support our Topsy Turvy Festival!

DONATE VIA BIG GIVE!

The people of Ellesmere Port and beyond have an important role to play this week! Theatre Porto has been chosen to take part in The Big Give’s Arts for Impact campaign, meaning that from midday 18th to midday 25th March, every public donation will be doubled.

This year, all donations will go towards Topsy Turvy, our outdoor arts festival for children and families in Ellesmere Port. Many families miss out on festivals due to high costs or accessibility barriers. Your support will help bring theatre, circus, and music to 5,000 people, ensuring that all children, regardless of background, can experience the magic of the arts.

Why Give?

  • Your donation will be doubled, making twice the impact.
  • Your support helps provide free or low-cost access to an incredible cultural event.
  • You’ll be helping disadvantaged families and children with disabilities access arts experiences that they might not otherwise have.
  • Arts and culture improve mental health, reduce isolation, and create lasting memories for families.

How to Donate

  • When? Between midday 18th and midday 25th March
  • Where? Visit BigGive.org and select Theatre Porto
  • What happens? Every donation is matched, doubling your impact

Can’t Donate? You Can Still Help!

Your Impact

  • £1,000 goal to support artists, theatre companies, and festival activities
  • 5,000 attendees, with a focus on disadvantaged communities
  • Creating magical childhood memories and opportunities for play, fun, and quality family time

“What a day! The stuff of magical childhood memories and dreams. Thank you for enabling me as a parent to spend time with my young girls in such a wonderful way.” – Previous Visitor

Let’s make double the difference for children and families in Ellesmere Port. Visit BigGive.org between 18th-25th March to donate towards the costs of Topsy Turvy 2025.
