Leaving a gift in your will is one of the most generous and heartfelt donations you can make.
You could help NEAT make plans with more confidence and security. Your kindness, whatever the amount, can help us support the brilliant Volunteer Promoters who commit to making the North East such a culturally vibrant place to live and visit. You will also provide opportunities for children and young people to experience theatre performances in their school. All legacies given will be free of all taxes as NEAT is a registered Charity.
If you would like more information on how to leave a legacy gift to us, please get in touch with Emyr Bell at [email protected].
