Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I'm proud to be a trustee of ACT - a wonderful, small, practical, focussed grant-giving charity that changes the lives of children of actor parents and helps them live secure and creative lives no matter what.
In the last year alone the charity has given away over £1.1m. A large proportion of that was in crisis grants through the pandemic, putting food on the table and paying the bills of acting families while our industry closed down. Those crisis grants continue to this day as the creative industries remain massively impacted and opportunities to work are very few for actors.
The rest helps support children's everyday lives and interests so that they are not disadvantaged even when times are hard for their parents.
In our 125th year we are fundraising to ensure we can support even more children into the future. I am undertaking a modest 125 ACTivity with my dog Bingo - upping our daily steps from 10,000 to 12,500 for the month of July. Thank you for sponsoring me!
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.
However DO CONSIDER BECOMING A LIFE MEMBER OF ACT for £125.00 and you can do that directly through the website www.actorschildren.org
Thank you so much for your support on behalf of all of us involved with ACT.
Love Lucy and Bingo x
