Help us train the next generation of circus artists

National Centre for Circus Arts is only one of 11 circus schools in the world offering circus arts as a higher education course and one of only two in the UK.

For the past 25 years we have been inspiring and mentoring people of all ages and backgrounds through our unique programme of circus arts training. Whether we are helping people improve their fitness and physical literacy through casual workshops, or whether we’re training the next generation of circus artists, our costly specialist training equipment and expertise is supported through the generosity of philanthropic funders.

As a charity, half of our annual income comes from grant awards, funding and donations and there are many ways that businesses, individuals and foundations can support our training and education programmes.
