I have visited beautiful Poltimore House & Gardens to see Four of Sword performances many times. It is clear how hard everybody has worked to breath life back into this troubled place. I was so upset to hear what had happened. Phoenix must rise from the ashes once again. Don’t lose heart guys, she is worth it. X

I was devastated when I saw the footage of the fire - I really hope that this fundraiser gives a real boost to everyone who has worked at Poltimore House over the past 25 years. Best Wishes

I was devastated to hear the news of the fire at Poltimore House and Grounds. My theatre company have performed there many times over the years (and are returning again this summer) and we want to see Poltimore continue to thrive, grow and shine. The staff work so hard and deserve our support - wishing you all the best!

Best Wishes with the rescue. I went to Poltimore House a few year's ago for a lime slam conference. The plasterwork on the ceilings was amazing
