Dance Warriors on Stage 2024

Helen Coppins is raising money for Nottinghamshire Down's Syndrome Support Group

My story

Your story

Nottingham Dance Warriors are an amazing group of children, young people and adults. The group is part of NDSSG’s work in the Nottingham community, and runs every week.

Dance Warriors has around 60 members, ranging from 5 to 50 years and all have learning disabilities. And they are united in a love of dance.

On Saturday 23 March, they will be performing in a show. We have hired a theatre and the dancers are so excited about getting to perform on stage in front of family, friends and the wider community. This will be their serving time of performing here.

However, this year, they will be joined by our newly formed group - Mansfield Dance Warriors. Despite only very recently formed, it now has over 30 members who love to dance. This will be their first ever time on stage!

However, we would love to make all the dancers feel extra special and to really look the part! Our dancers (and support workers) all have a T-shirt to wear with the Dance Warriors logo on, but we would love to have some special props and accessories to enhance it.

We don’t want anything fancy, just some cheap additional bits and bobs to enhance their dances - like caps, rock n roll skirts, fancy dress jackets, sunglasses, etc

These will be used time and time again, as the dancers will, I’m sure, be doing many more performances after this.

We want to raise £350 towards this, which works out at just under £4 per dancer/support worker.

If you can help in any way, that would be amazing! Thank you!

My updates

Thank you so much to all of you for helping us reach our target! The dancers will now all look and feel amazing when they take to the stage! And though there will now be two separate shows for the different groups, they will all look just as great in their costumes. Thank you!
