NSA OG's fundraiser for ALL ENGLAND DANCE

Sophia Melvin is raising money for ALL ENGLAND DANCE

Team: Team fundraising for ALL ENGLAND DANCE

All England Dance were founded in 1923 and since that time we have gained a reputation for excellence. AED is a charity whose mission is to support growth and inclusion through dance. It is through competition we learn tenacity and many other attributes including self confidence, the ability to perform in public and most importantly of all, graciousness in participation. The competition is a fun experience where brilliance is celebrated but taking part is everything. Affiliated to the British And International Federation Of Festivals For Music, Dance and Speech of which Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth was patron.

Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. We are the NSA OGs and we are delighted to be taking part in the Angela Rippon Dance Challenge 2026. We haven’t hit the stage together since AED Regionals in 2019, so please sponsor us in our big return!

This is an exciting new initiative launched in 2026, combining participation, performance and fundraising to support young dancers across the UK. Led by Angela Rippon CBE and delivered by All England Dance, the challenge celebrates the lasting value of dance – supporting wellbeing, connection and opportunity at every stage of adult life. This initiative is designed to be enjoyable, inspiring, and to encourage fundraising and community engagement - celebrating dance in an inclusive and uplifting environment.

The challenge is open to those aged 18 and over, from any dance background or style. Participants may be professional or amateur, returning to dance after many years or taking part in a dance competition for the very first time.

Participation in the Angela Rippon Dance Challenge directly supports the charitable work of All England Dance. Every £3000 helps to support a dancer for just one year. Additional fundraising enables further scholarships, free nationwide workshops and increased access to dance opportunities for young people across the UK.
