Acting for Others

Through the network of 14 member charities we provide financial and emotional support to all theatre workers in times of need, whether they are backstage, on stage, front of house, or creatives, however they have contributed to the workings of the theatre. In addition to individual grant making, the network has been able to provide counselling, benefit advice, support nursing home fees, help with retraining and help actors’ children and more recently, especially through the covid pandemic, support those in crisis.

The funds raised help us come to the aid of all theatre professionals. Without the help and enthusiasm of the theatrical community and generous donations from audiences and others, Acting for Others could not continue to enable the remarkable work we do through the 14 member charities.
