NEW TERM!

Now's your chance to take part. Our Creative Engagement groups will be back again in January. This is a fantastic opportunity to make new friends, have fun and perform at the Octagon. We believe everyone has a story to tell, and our theatre workshops are designed to give confidence and skills for everyone to tell theirs!

Spring Term will run from the week beginning 13 January until the week beginning 24 March, excluding the week beginning 17 February which is half-term.

SUPPORTED PLACES

As a charity, we strive to keep our fees at an affordable cost so as many people as possible can take part. We also offer installment payment options to help people spread the cost of fees. We realise that for some families, the cost to take part is a barrier.

We are sometimes able to offer financial assistance to participants experiencing financial hardship as well as those from communities currently underrepresented within our participation groups thanks to the generosity of our funders. We actively encourage applicants from those experiencing financial hardship and also those from Black, Asian and Global majority backgrounds.

Applications for Supported Places - Spring Term has now closed. To join the waiting list for Summer Term financial assistance please contact: participation@octagonbolton.co.uk
