If you're employed you can donate regularly to Open Clasp through your pay. Open Clasp is registered for Payroll Giving through Give as You Earn at the Charities Aid Foundation. This is tax free and flexible, you can choose to donate as little as 50p per month. Because it’s a regular donation and we’ll receive Gift Aid this rapidly adds up and makes a big difference to us. If your employer is already registered with the Give As You Earn scheme you need to let your payroll department know you want to donate to Open Clasp, and quote our reference number (000480521). You’ll need to fill in a simple form saying how much you’d like to donate and how often. If your employer isn’t registered yet they can do so easily. Ask your employer to contact the Charities Aid Foundation on giveasyouearn@CAFonline.org or call 01732 520019.

production - as a warning,
as a great night out
and mostly as a celebration.
Keep on talking -
your message needs to be heard.'

‘Open Clasp give
help and support in a way
no one else
does. Their work has been
very
important to many people.
I have
benefited through the workshops
by talking
about things most people
don’t
mention. The plays have also helped
me by
hearing taboo subjects discussed
openly on
stage. This gives others knowledge
and people
like me feel it is okay
to speak
the unspeakable.'

Gap” 2007
