How you can support us during our closure

This week, we locked the door to Insole Court. The pain felt by the staff, volunteers and our supporters is profound, but this is not goodbye! The Coronavirus outbreak has changed all our lives and will do so for many months to come, but we are hard at work securing financial support to allow us to reopen as soon as it’s safe to do so. We can’t wait to welcome you all back to Insole Court, but we need your help to make it a reality.

We know that it’s a tough time for everyone at the moment, but if you are able to support us, we would appreciate it. If you can’t right now, we understand. A few words of support online or even mentioning us to friends or family can help too.

There are three great ways you can make a financial contribution:

1) Become a Member

The Trust has always had a Membership scheme, but we’ve added some great benefits and made it easier to join. For just £2.50 per month or £30 a year, you’ll get a discount at the Potting Shed Café and our shop, plus you’ll be able to see our wonderful heritage exhibition, ‘This House is a Stage’ for free, as many times as you like! Plus you’ll be directly contributing to the charity’s mission to look after Insole Court and keep it available and accessible to everyone. Click HERE to become a Member.

2) Become a Patron

Our Patrons are able to give more, and their contribution is essential in helping us to plan for the future. For every person who can support us with £20 a month or £240 per year, Insole Court will benefit directly — everything from ongoing conservation to new education and outreach projects. You’ll also receive all of the exclusive benefits available to our Members. Click HERE to become a Patron.

3) Make an online donation

You can make a one-off gift or set up a regular donation on our website HERE. It’s simple to do and will help the charity cover unavoidable costs during our ‘hibernation’. Every donation we receive increases the chances of Insole Court reopening and to stay open for years to come.

On behalf of our Trustees and the entire Insole Court team, thank you.
