West Wiltshire Young Musicians

How can you help?

  1. As an individual,you can help by joining our Committee and/or at Concerts eg, raffle tickets, programmes, stewarding etc. etc. Please ring Caroline Hiorns on our contact us page if you feel you can help in this way.

  2. As an individual, you can become a Patron. Extra money from our patrons adds up to a significant amount each year and, as a patron, you receive two free tickets for both the Summer and Christmas concerts (in addition to your normal allocation of two tickets).   Subscription Rates are for 2008/2009 at £50/year.   We can offer an 18-month rate if you join half way through the year.  Please contact Lesley (see below).   Click this link to take you to the form, on which is the address to return it together with your cheque.

  3. As a business, why not become a Corporate Sponsor?

WWYM has some 500 children (about 400+ families) currently on our register from across Central Wiltshire. There are many benefits in being a Corporate Sponsor, which include :

• supporting our young musicians making music in your local area;
• creating a relationship with us whereby we could perhaps play for you at a special function (during term time);
• your company name being listed on our concert programmes and acknowledgement being given in our annual AGM report which is sent to all 400 families plus an additional 100 friends on our mailing list (FOC);
• being able to advertise in our main Concert programmes FOC (usually Christmas and Summer);
• distributing a leaflet/handout for you to our families at our main concerts and/or a product display stand;
• attaching an information sheet (A4 or A5) with our regular newsletters sent home via the children approximately twice a term.

There are many ways of being a sponsor, and these are listed below:

• an annual or 3-year donation dependent upon size of company

• sponsoring an instrument – (£300 to £3,000), where your company's name will be inserted into the instrument box and recognition given as a sponsor in all the above ways;

• sponsoring a concert – varies considerably according to venue….. The larger venues can cost c. £1000 for the day; our 4 Christmas Concerts approx £800.

• sponsoring a concert programme approx. £300;

sponsoring the Christmas Quiz - photocopying approx. 500 copies on 2 pages A4 plus Prize Monday of approx £150

 

• buying a set of music – from £200;

• commissioning a new work – to be discussed with James Monckton, Musical Director of WWYM – as a guide this would be £750 +.

• If you felt there was a way in which your company could help in the work of WWYM not already mentioned, then do please give me a call to discuss your idea – we are open to suggestions!

As a Sponsor, you would be entitled to two tickets for the Summer and Christmas Concerts and we hope you and some of your colleagues would be able to join us for a 'Get to know the Music Centre in Bradford on Avon'.
