SUPPORT US
As a registered charity, every penny SPILL receives directly supports our work with artists, audiences, and the people of Ipswich. We get some of our funding from Arts Council England and Ipswich Borough Council, but we need to raise much more in order to realise all our ambitious projects. Here’s how you can help.
SPILL WITH BENEFITS
SPILL with Benefits is our new supporters’ club, providing members with limited edition artist postcards, advance booking offers and exclusive discounts, all for one low annual charge of £25.
Your contributions through SPILL with Benefits directly seed our programmes of support for artists based across East Anglia. We provide residencies, commission new works and provide opportunities for regional artists to share early ideas with audiences at our Ipswich Think Tank.
MAKE A DONATION
Climate Grief Karaoke - Katy Dye (SPILL 2021)
By making a donation to SPILL, however big or small, you will be helping us to produce the world-renowned SPILL Festival and deliver year-round participatory activities at our Ipswich Think Tank.
Use our online platform and click below to make a one-off donation or set up a recurring payment. Please indicate if your donation is eligible for Gift Aid; if it is, we receive an additional 25% of its value from the UK government.
If you would like to know more about how your donation is used, or want to specify the particular programme you wish to support, email Megan Vaughan, Executive Director: megan@spillfestival.com.
LEAVE A LEGACY
Clarion Call - Byron J. Scullin + Supple Fox (SPILL 2018)
A legacy gift in your will can help us nurture innovation and creativity for generations to come. Easy to arrange, they will not alter your current lifestyle and can be easily modified to address your changing needs. A legacy gift in your will can be a sum of money, equities and bonds, a specific item or a share of what is left of your estate. As SPILL is a registered charity, legacy gifts are exempt from inheritance tax thus reducing the overall amount of tax payable out of your estate. Further reductions in tax are available for those who leave 10% or more of their estate to charity.
For further information or to have a confidential discussion about how you can support our work through a legacy, please email megan@spillfestival.com.
