News Story
A successful second week of our 40 for 40 Challenge!
Last week Sarah and Grace took on another week of 40 for 40 Challenges. They're taking on new challenges in the 40 days running up to our Gala performance, celebrating the 40th anniversary of our reopening in 1986.
On Monday Grace and Daisy had a go at flying with our backstage team, on Tuesday the whole team attempted to eat 40 delicious cupcakes that our amazing Emma had hand-baked and on Wednesday Daisy and Grace took a trip to Techmonkeys for an IT challenge. On Thursday Grace attempted a box office shift and Sarah and Grace joined forces to have a go at doing a hearing test at Specsavers.
You can keep updated on their progress with the challenges on our Facebook and Instagram.
See below for a reminder of how you can support them and how you could even get involved!
Pledge to Donate to Sponsor Them!
On Tuesday 17 March we will be launching our Arts for Impact fundraising campaign with the Big Give. For one week, all donations to our Big Give campaign will be doubled, which means that we'll receive £2 for every pound you donate. Pledge to sponsor the team and donate when the campaign opens on 17 March. Come back to our news page on Tuesday 17 March for a link to our campaign!
Take on your own 40 challenge!
Feeling inspired by our 40 for 40 challenge, why not give yourself a challenge? You could challenge yourself to try something new for the next 40 days, or try to do 40 of something a day. With the support of Grace from the Development Team, you could collect donations from friends and family for the Theatre. Email development@theatreroyalwakefield.co.uk for more info!
