Support Us

We are currently progressing plans to create a second multi-purpose performance space, new foyer and bar and improved access and amenities for those with mobility impairments. Together with your help, we can establish a community asset for everyone, for generations to come, right in the centre of the City.

Find out more about the development here.


Ways to Support:

Donations
- Donate online via Givey
Donations can also be made via cheque (payable to Winchester Dramatic Society) and by credit card at the theatre: Look out for our contactless donation station; tap to effortlessly donate £3, £5 or £10.
- Make a regular gift
To set up regular giving, please download a donation form and return it to the Treasurer ([email protected]) when you set up the standing order in your banking app.


Don’t forget to Gift Aid It: Gift Aid allows the Chesil to claim an extra 25p for every £1 donated - at no cost to you.

Corporate Support
As a community theatre, we have strong links with local businesses. Whether you are interested in sponsoring a show, advertising, corporate hospitality or naming a space in our new studio facilities, please get in touch with the Chairman ([email protected]) to discuss.

Leave a Gift in your will
None of us likes to think about what happens after we go, but leaving a  gift in your will can be the most meaningful, impactful donation you ever give. Please see our Legacy Giving Document for more information.

Trusts, Foundations, Major Gifts & other ways to give
We welcome contact and support from trustees, foundations and individuals looking to significantly support Winchester’s community through the Chesil. Please contact us and see our Donor Charter for full details on gift acceptance and other ways to support.
