We are raising funds so that Angelshed can train workers who already have British Sign Language skills to extend their training so non-hearing children can attend the theatre and art workshops.

We are all passionate about the positive impact working in an inclusive and creative environment can be on those pushed out at the edges of society and would like to thank you all for your support of this inspiring company.
