We're still collecting donations

On the 23rd September 2020 we'd raised £1,500 with 66 supporters in 56 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.

 New stretch target

We cannot believe the support we have received so far and would like to thank everyone who has donated! Your support is vital in making sure our wonderful festival returns in 2021.

We have reached an incredible £1500 and have now set ourselves a new target of raising £5000. Wow! Reaching this amount would mean the 2021 festival is secure. Meaning that artists will have a safe platform to share their work and audiences the opportunity to get together again.

All in the Mind is the only outdoor mental health arts festival in the UK, run by the Charity Fluid Motion Theatre Company. The festival usually takes place in Eastrop Park, Basingstoke each September and is free to attend. In 2020, due to Covid-19 we had to cancel the outdoor event but have worked hard and overcome many hurdles to ensure audiences can still take part by developing the festival online.

The All in the Mind Festival exists as a platform to celebrate the power of the arts in improving mental health. It gives artists a safe and supportive platform to try out new ideas, share their work and be heard. It makes connections, bringing individuals, families and communities together to take part in something collectively. It inspires people, giving them the opportunity to use the arts in their own lives.

Due to COVID-19 many artists and performers have been left without the ability to work. Arts venues have closed and festivals like ours have been cancelled all across the country. 

Now more than ever we should support one another, the arts are a powerful tool in the Nation's recovery. Now more than ever the arts are needed to help improve people's mental health. As we embark on a journey in this new world, All in the Mind aims to utilise art and performance to initiate vital conversations, to provide a safe space for artists to perform and share their experiences, to bring communities together again and add a bit of colour back into life. 

To continue on this mission, we desperately need your help! Without it, the festival cannot continue.

With your help the All in the Mind Festival will return outdoors in 2021. With your help we will recover, begin to commission artists and create work that reflects the journey we have all been on. With your help we can start to bring our community together again to have fun, be excited, be inspired and to thrive.

All in the Mind Festival is a FREE event, donating allows us to keep it that way so that everybody has an opportunity to have their mind blown and be part of something special!
