We are a community run theatre that offers to the people of York live entertainment

Story

Thanks for visiting my JustGiving page.  I am making these fun face masks to brighten up those occasions when people wish to wear them.  They are in a variety of fabrics with lots to choose from including animals and other quirky designs. Please donate £8 (more if you can afford it) for each mask and then contact me to chose designs. 

They are high quality fabrics which I have bought, some have now gone as they were popular.  I have managed to purchase a few more from a shop that was sadly closing, so can keep going for a while yet.  Please add your name to your donation - if it is anonymous I won't know who to give the mask to. 

Please remember I am not a shop, I am paying for and donating all materials and also my considerable time in making these. 

The money is to support the Joseph Rowntree Theatre, a community enterprise run entirely by volunteers which provides a venue for many charitable and local groups in York.  All our income has now ceased as nobody is using the theatre, we still need to pay bills and get the roof repaired - it is needing a good bit of work after 85 years.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
