We're still collecting donations
On the 13th May 2024 we'd raised £1 with 1 supporters in 73 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
Building on the impact of our 10 year anniversary mega-event we want a legacy that embeds the Arts in all of our schools for years to come!

On the 13th May 2024 we'd raised £1 with 1 supporters in 73 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
Leeds East Primary Partnership is a Foundation Trust of 5 Primary Schools serving inner-city East Leeds.
Our Mission is to create Opportunity for ALL.
Access to the Arts is not always a priority or an option for our children and the community we serve. However we have seen from past investment in all of our schools the transformative effect that the Arts can have on children's self-esteem and confidence. We're looking to build sustainability to the huge enrichment opportunities that the Arts provide for children across all of our schools.
Our Trust turned 10 years old in 2022 and to celebrate this we planned the biggest school's event in Leeds' Theatres history by ensuring ALL of our children across ALL of our schools accessed a performance of either The Enormous Crocodile or Oliver at Leeds Playhouse in December 2023. This will likely be a once in a lifetime opportunity for our children and community - but what if it wasn't?
We want for this mega-event to be turned into a legacy and we've already started on this journey with staff training, pupil's pre-show preparation, video and photographic documenting of the process and post-event relationships to develop with our arts partners. There's more to do.
We would love to get financial support to make sure that we can build our legacy to work with our Arts partners and create new partnerships that provide our children with as many opportunities as we can.
East Leeds will have some amazing and talented musicians, actors, singers etc but how will they be inspired, trained and discovered if they're not exposed to all these amazing artforms and pathways?
We need your help so that this can happen and have the least impact on our already stretched school budgets. Can you help? Please.
