Storyhouse is more than just a theatre, cinema and library. We’re the cornerstone of our community, where people come together to connect, learn, and celebrate. Every penny of profit generated goes back into our community. Supporting Storyhouse is not only fun but also a responsible and compassionate choice.
First and foremost, Storyhouse is vital in uplifting the lives of vulnerable and under-served young people in our city by creating transformative opportunities. Programmes like Young Leaders and The Agency provide essential guidance and opportunities to these individuals, helping them build a brighter future. By supporting Storyhouse, you directly contribute to these initiatives, making a tangible difference in the next generation’s lives.
Our community programme also reaches socially isolated older adults and minority groups. Programmes like Kaleidoscope for learning-disabled adults and Storyhouse Queer for our LGBTQIA+ communities provide a platform and safe space for Chester’s minority groups.
Support for Storyhouse can take various forms, from donating (from £1 to a million!) to becoming a member or volunteering. Each of these actions actively contributes to our sustainability. Storyhouse’s existence is at risk without your support, depriving the community of its many benefits. Whether you enjoy a show at the theatre, watch a film, study in the library, or meet friends, remember that your contribution keeps this invaluable resource alive.
Supporting Storyhouse is an investment in our community’s well-being, inclusivity, and cultural richness. It is an act of responsibility and compassion, ensuring that Chester remains a place where everyone can connect, learn, be themselves and celebrate. By donating, becoming a member, or volunteering, you are not just enjoying Storyhouse’s offerings; you are actively contributing to the betterment of Chester and the lives of those who call it home.
