Today is #GivingTuesday – where people across the globe come together to support good causes. Throughout our gradual reopening, we’ve been overwhelmed by the kindness, patience and respect you have shown your fellow audience members and the support you have given to Unity and the artists in our programme.

You’ve really gone above and beyond to ensure we can keep our venue running, carry on supporting Liverpool creatives and offering an online programme.


Since Unity reopened in June 2021, your support and donations have meant:

  • 631 artists have been directly supported through our Creative’pool Programme. This includes:
    • Attending a Creative’pool training or networking event
    • One-to-one mentoring and check-in chats with Unity staff
    • Support with writing successful fundraising application
    • Free time and space to rehearse and develop their work
  • 85% of our live programme has been available to watch online as well as in venue
  • with over 2000 people benefitting from the option to watch from home
  • Through the Unity Open Call, 22 Liverpool artists and companies have received guaranteed income, a slot in our programme, mentoring, technical support and a professional recording of their work
  • Every single show has had a captioned or BSL interpreted option
  • 100+ artists have been able to connect and get their work seen by over 200+ national programmers through our new website, ProPortal
BUT

We need your help to continue to make all of this possible again in 2022.

Last week we announced the Unity Circle – a new, low-cost way to support us.
