SUPPORT CLONTER
For 38 years the Clonter Farm Music Trust charity has been committed to providing training and performance opportunities for singers at the start of their professional careers. During their time with the opera all accommodation and individual coaching is paid for by the charity CFMT.
Clonter's Educational outreach programme has now reached its 21st year giving children the opportunity to explore all aspects of opera, operetta and musical theatre including design and creating short Musical Theatre pieces.
The Trust activities are managed by a small administrative team backed up by a large number of volunteers who work together to support the aims of the Trust. However, the cost of running a theatre and staging each performance means strong box office sales, funding from institutions, trusts and individual support is essential.
Every ticket sold, subscription or donation that you make directly supports the future of Clonter Opera providing outstanding training and performance opportunities for young singers and educational outreach work for children.
Each year Clonter must raise over £400,000 to continue to support the work and facilities provided to young professionals. Every donation, whatever the value, is vital – and very much appreciated.
Thank you for your support.
SUPPORT OUR LONDON TOUR
Our 2013 Summer production is planned to tour to London in the Autumn. This will give singers an extended period to 'get to know their roles' and be seen by a wider audience. It is an essential part of the overall vision. Many corporate sponsorship budgets will be committed to the Olympics this year and we have decided to try and get ahead of the game for 2013!

 The Clonter Appeal was launched in December 2011. Thanks to the overwhelming early response Clonter has raised £50,000 so far
including £44,000 from the Big Give Christmas Challenge.
Each year Clonter needs to raise £400,000. £200,000 from ticket sales and the rest from donations, grants and sponsorship.
It is vital for Clonter to find new donors, charitable trusts and corporate sponsors.
A full programme + a London Tour is planned for 2013.
