Support Music in Country Churches
There are various ways to support Music in Country Churches
Become a Friend
You can become a Friend by making a donation using the form above. For a minimum donation of £25 per annum you will receive the satisfaction of supporting two key heritage areas. Friends are also kept updated with full details about future concert series in advance of the general public, get two weeks’ priority booking for our concerts, are sent several newsletters throughout the year, and invitations to special events and receptions. The names of Friends who donate £100 or more are printed in our annual brochure.
Place an advertisement in our concert series guide
Sponsor 50% or 100% of the costs of one of our concerts
Your sponsorship will help us to cover all or half of the artist fees and production costs for a particular concert. This is important because it means that we will be able to donate generously to the hosting church.
Sponsoring a concert can be a way to help bring a particular musician or group to our series, or to enable us to visit a particular place. It is also a way to show your deep passion for our charitable causes, to mark a life event, or to celebrate the memory of a loved one.
If you are a company or organisation, it is a great way to associate your brand with our charitable work of supporting this country’s performing arts and historical heritage.
Whatever your motivation, we would be deeply grateful for your generosity.
There are various benefits depending on the level of sponsorship you choose. As a concert sponsor you will be acknowledged (should you wish to be) in our concert series guide, on our website, and at the concert itself. There are various other benefits such as complimentary tickets, attendance at the rehearsal, and a chance to meet the musicians.
Leaving A Legacy
A Gift for the Future
Music in Country Churches could not exist without the generosity of so many people. By leaving a legacy to Music in Country Churches, you will help us to ensure that two things out of which you have derived great joy – music and country churches – can continue and be enjoyed by future generations.
By leaving a gift to Music in Country Churches in your will we will be able to:
- Continue our work of helping to preserve the centuries-old heritage of our country’s rural parish churches
- Give performance opportunities to the next generation of performers and young musicians
- Take world-class musical ensembles and performers to rural parish churches
- Plan for the future with confidence
We would be delighted to hear if you are planning to leave us a legacy, but you do not have to tell us. It does not need to be a large amount. Any gift, great or small, would be hugely appreciated.
If you wish to support us in another way, such as to donate the proceeds of a collection in lieu of flowers at a funeral, please leave instructions in your Will or with your family and loved ones. Again, you do not need to tell us of your intentions, but we would love to know so that we can thank you for your generosity.
If you are leaving us a gift in your Will, thank you. You can be secure in the knowledge that your gift will be of benefit to future generations of people who love music and country churches.
