Hi! I'm launching the Burton Costume Project, a grassroots initiative to make costume hire more affordable, accessible, and sustainable for community groups, schools and creatives across Burton and beyond.

We're building this from scratch — with your support.

Here’s how your donation can help:

£5 will keep our intern fuelled with biscuits during volunteer sessions.

£10 buys a sturdy plastic storage box to keep costumes safe and organised.

£40 helps fund essential training in volunteer management and safeguarding.

£100 covers basic health and safety supplies for our workspace.

£250 pays for insurance so we can open our doors to the community.

£500 gets us garment rails, shelving, and bags to protect the costume collection.

£1,000 secures safe, long-term storage so we can keep growing.

Our start-up goal is to cover key essentials like insurance, safe storage, and supplies.

While the full setup will cost more, this first milestone means we can launch safely and build from there.

Every penny helps us turn this into a lasting creative resource for the local community.

Thank you for helping us bring the Burton Costume Project to life.
