Bronte Readathon to save the Bronte Parsonage

Fundraising for The Bronte Society

raised of £500 target
48 hour Brontë Readathon, 30 October 2020
The COVID-19 pandemic has hit us hard financially. A grant from the Arts Council Emergency Response fund enabled us to reopen and survive until the autumn, but we need your help to ensure we will still be here next year

Story

The future of the Brontë Parsonage Museum, the former home of Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte is at risk. The financial impact of being closed during the Covid-19 pandemic, combined with limited space means that even though the Museum has successfully reopened, it may not be able to stay open. Please help us to preserve the museum and its important collections to that they can inspire and be enjoyed by generations of people to come.

The three of us will be reading all seven novels written by the Bronte sisters over 48 hours to raise money to help raise money to keep the Parsonage open.
