 Find out more about donating to HOME


Home from HOME is a three year arts programme in Moss Side, Hulme, and Gorton, built on two years of listening to the people who live there. 2,578 residents have taken part, making films, exhibitions and theatre. This year, the groups pass into the hands of the communities running them. We're raising £10,000 by Christmas!

Every gift is eligible for Gift Aid, so if you are a UK taxpayer, HOE can claim 25p of tax on every £1 you donate, at no extra cost to you. Find out more and complete the declaration form here. No matter the amount, your donation buys a permanent change, and a tangible difference in the lives of our communities.

This final push pays to move the groups into the ownership of the people who have come to run them. Every pound of this appeal goes to Home from HOME, but if we pass £10,000 before Christmas, anything further stays in our wider campaigns programme, funding the same kind of work with Manchester communities.

Can you help us raise £10,000 by Christmas?

Home from HOME is part of HOME’s Creative Engagement programme, which covers the work we do with community groups and young people across Manchester all year round. Based out of Moss Side, Hulme and Gorton, Home from HOME co-creates work with community members, making visual art, film and theatre with professional artists.

Home from HOME was set up to do three things:

  • Give people a lasting relationship with HOME, not a one-off visit
  • Support their health and wellbeing
  • Put creativity into three neighbourhoods where almost none of it was being funded

In the last year alone it ran 159 workshops, 18 trips to the theatre and 13 community meals, and reached 1,404 people.

 

The final year of the programme will cost £117,742 to deliver. Thanks to brilliant funders including the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, Garfield Weston Foundation and Leri Charitable Trust, and a group of passionate and committed individual donors, we are only £14,482 away. We are looking to raise £10,000 towards the total – and you’re invited to join us!

 

Interested in supporting HOME?

 

Spread the word.

Sometimes telling someone about our projects is the best way to connect with them. Everything here is free to use - no permission needed, no credit required, no asking first.

That includes you if you’re part of Home from HOME. If you’ve been in a group, come to a workshop, or stood on our stage, these are yours to share. The people this appeal is for could well hear it directly from you.

Sharing it takes thirty seconds. 

Post one of these, forward the link to someone you think would be interested, or put up a poster where you work.
