| NCO - also known as the Northern Cake Orchestra! |
INDIVIDUAL / PATRON SUPPORT:
This season we have made no artistic compromises in our choice of concert programme, but this does
mean that we are over budget. However, there a number of ways in which you can help us:
|
Sponsor a Brandenburg Concerto reserve your preferred seat (held until 1st September) put us in touch with any businesses that yoiu think might be interested in sponsorship or placing an advert in the concert programme distribute leaflets and posters in your area encourage your friends to come to our concert |
|
As a small non-government funded arts organisation, we face a constant battle when it comes to financial sustainability. To combat the fact that we receive no regular grants we have introduced a Patron Scheme. By joining our increasing number of Patrons, you are not only making a significant contribution to the NCO's well being, but you are also becoming involved ina rewarding and personal way. As well as receiving copies of the Macclesfield friends newsletter and notice of events. Patrons are listed in Our Concert Programmes ( unless you request anomity), and are invited to join the Friends and members of the orchestra for drinks after the Macclesfield concerts.The scheme starts at £100 per person (renewable annually)and, if you are a taxpayer, we are able to claim Gift Aid and receive an extra 25% at current rates. |
|
Friends of the NCO Become a Friend of the NCO and not only support the orchestra, but also receive a range of exclusive benefits. As a Friend, you will be kept informed of current and planned developments of the orchestra through our regular Newsletters. By quoting your Friends membership number, or using your card, you will receive discounts on tickets for many of our own promotions. Throughout the year, we arrange social fundraising events exclusive to Friends, where you will have the opportunity to meet other like-minded people and members of the orchestra. |
