Why your donation matters
Whilst the main costs are for the office rent and the website, there is real value in this. Having an office space with a workshop room means we can run our creative groups for adults with BPD, carry out our awareness training, store the artwork for our exhibitions, prepare for our film project, manage the day-to-day running of the charity and much more. Our website is a hub for raising awareness of BPD and breaking down stigma and signposting those needing support to relevant help. This decreases the sense of loneliness for those with the diagnosis and improves treatment for and attitudes towards BPD. It is also a place to celebrate and promote the talent of artists and writers with BPD. We make every effort to keep our overheads as low as we possibly can.
A Special Thank You to Randal Charitable Foundation
We are absolutely delighted to have been granted the generous sum of £3000 by Randal Charitable Trust. This is to assist us with general running costs to enable us to concentrate on major projects such as our film project and re launching our creative workshops. This really is a godsend for us and we can’t thank them enough.
We would like to also thank Foundation Derbyshire for linking us here at Borderline Arts with this charity, who specifically wanted to help a small charity working to support those with mental health issues.
