On behalf of the Board of Trustees and CEO, Dance Woking would like to update you on our current situation. Dance Woking has for the past thirty years enjoyed the support of regular funding from Woking Borough Council (WBC), and delivered a series of highly valued programmes, adapting and changing these over time to best serve the local community and environment. More recently Dance Woking’s programme has sat under the ‘Inspired’ brand, including our Inspired Learning Programme. Following WBC issuing a 114 Notice last year, and only been able to support statutory provision, the financial support Dance Woking received ceased. The lack of this regular funding has meant our current way of working is unsustainable and as an organisation we have had to make some difficult decisions rethinking how we might work differently in the future. As part of this process we will be taking a break from delivering activity this autumn, a decision which we understand will be very disappointing for some of you. We highly value our partnerships, which has made our provision possible and the positive impact our work has on individuals and the wider community.  This break will give us time to consider new ways of working and funding.

Dance Woking will continue to deliver planned activity in July & August. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for supporting us and being part of the Dance Woking family of supporters and key stakeholders.
