Circle Membership

Circle Membership

Become a Circle Member and help to build a more inclusive ballet sector for all. Our Donor Circles are for supporters who want a closer connection to NYB, starting from £500 a year.

As a member, you’ll receive newsletters and updates showing the impact of your support, be thanked on our website and in our programmes, and be invited to donor receptions where you can meet NYB alum, leadership and our creative team. You’ll also get the chance to go behind the scenes, including dress rehearsals, and depending on your level of support, invitations to intimate talks and Q&As with established artists, the Frank Freeman Choreographic Competition, and exclusive dinners with key NYB figures.

Or, as a Company Sponsor, you can support a specific group of dancers – our Residential Performance Company, Residential Performance Company Intensive, or NYB All In! Performance Company – and help give them the best possible start.

You can set up a direct debit or make a one-off payment through our secure payment partner, CAF Donate. Direct debits are quick to set up and easy to cancel. If you’d like to discuss Circle Membership, please contact our Fundraising Manager, Hanaa Skalli.

“I love supporting National Youth Ballet. It’s so rewarding to see the commitment and talent of young people enjoying a world-class ballet experience at the start of their careers. Please join me in supporting NYB.”

Joanna Lumley, Patron

“The National Youth Ballet has, without doubt, been one of the most inspiring and creatively developmental environments I have ever experienced.”
