LEVEL Centre took part in the Big Give Christmas Challenge in December 2024 to raise funds for GLISTEN Fest, their annual sensory festival for audiences with profound multiple learning disabilities.
Kerry Andrews, Artistic Director of LEVEL Centre said, “To ensure our participation in the challenge, we needed to secure a number of 'pledges' towards our matched funding pot. We are grateful to Councillor Hobson for the pledge support of £250 from the Derbyshire County Council Community Leadership Fund which helped us reach our target. This meant we could go on to take part in the public fundraising week, raising over £2,000 towards our next GLISTEN Fest event in Autumn 2025. Without such pledge support we could not make this happen. Thanks to Councillor Hobson for contributing towards this unique, special festival, which ignites senses, inspires creativity and creates memories that can be shared with family, friends and carers”
