Support North East Deaf Youth Theatre's Christmas Campaign

This festive season, we’re on a mission to make a difference in the lives of Deaf children and young people in our community, and we need your support! 

We believe that every child and young person deserves the chance to shine, express themselves, and build their confidence. We provide accessible and inspiring theatre-making opportunities for Deaf children and young people. Our goal is to nurture their creative skills and support their overall wellbeing. 

🌟 Our Vision: 

We're creating a safe and inclusive space where Deaf children and young people can explore the world of theatre, develop their creative talents, and find their unique voices. Led by Unfolding Theatre's Creative Associate, EJ Raymond, who is profoundly Deaf, our group is a beacon of creativity and empowerment. 

In August 2024, we're hosting a 5-day summer camp, where 20 Deaf children and young people will embark on a journey of co-creating a theatre project. The result? A magical performance for their families, friends, and special guests. 

🌠 Why Your Support Matters: 

Your generous contribution will help us cover the costs of creative freelancers, BSL interpreters, venue hire, and workshop materials. With your help, we can deliver: 

🌟 A 5-day theatre summer camp that will leave lasting memories for our young talents.  

🌟 An inspiring programme of theatre-making opportunities for 20 Deaf children and young people.  

🌟 A co-created piece of theatre, born from the hearts and minds of our extraordinary young artists. 

👏 The Impact You Can Make: 

By supporting our Christmas campaign, you're not just giving; you're investing in the future of Deaf children and young people. As EJ Raymond, our Creative Associate, reminds us, "Young deaf people have their own unique creativity, imagination, and talent." Your contribution ensures that Deaf children and young people are celebrated, not limited, in their potential. 

North East Deaf Youth Theatre is all about: 

✨ Celebrating the creativity of Deaf children and young people.  

✨ Providing access to creative opportunities that inspire the next generation of artists, directors, scriptwriters, and more.  

✨ Fostering connections with positive Deaf role models.  

✨ Creating a safe and accessible space for Deaf children and young people to explore, build confidence, make friends, and develop valuable skills. 

🌈 Our Journey So Far: 

Since 2022, we've had the privilege of engaging with 49 Deaf children and young people, igniting their passion for creativity. Now, we're determined to continue this meaningful journey, but we can't do it without your support. 

This Christmas, be the Santa Claus of creativity and empowerment. Your donation will help us make dreams come true for Deaf children and young people in our community. 

Join us in supporting North East Deaf Youth Theatre and make this Christmas a season of joy, inspiration, and inclusion. Together, we can light up the stage for our incredible young talents.
