Would you like to become part of the team?

We are always looking for volunteers to join our existing team of helpers who get involved both during the planning of the Festival and the weekends in March. Please get in touch with the Administrator - Maddie Turner - on admin@springboardfestival.co.uk or ring her on 01273 306067 to have an informal chat.

Why not sponsor a Class or donate a Prize?

Becoming a 'Class Sponsor' is a fantastic way to support the festival!

When you become a 'Class Sponsor' your name is announced at the beginning of your allocated class and is also printed in the festival programme. 'Class Sponsorship' costs a minimum of £30 per year.

If you are interested in supporting the festival through this method, please download a 'Class Sponsor Form', fill it in and return it to the festival office at the address below.

Forms to be returned to the Festival Office:
Madeleine Turner - Festival Administrator
240 Cowley Drive, Brighton BN2 6TH
Telephone: 01273 306067

If you would like to donate a Prize (which can be money or a cup) in one of the Sections, please contact, in the first instance, the Secretary of the Section in which you are interested.

Gift Aid Declaration

As a charity, since 6 April 2000 we can now claim the tax back on any donation made to Springboard. This means every Donation, Subscription or Gift is now worth 28% more than before - so a £100 donation becomes £128!

Please make sure you fill in the 'Gift Aid Declaration Form' and return it to us. (It will not cost you anything extra.)

"As a parent, I was impressed by the standard of all the entrants. Each class was a treat for us in the audience. It was interesting, too, to hear some of the grade pieces being played by someone other than my daughter, and to see how they handled the tricky bits."
