Arts school support Comic Relief

A Sussex-based performing arts academy raised more than £850 for Comic Relief, with each of its six academies taking on a different fundraising activity.

On Saturday, March 12, students at Ariel Drama Academies threw themselves into fundraising for the cause with a fancy dress day, cake sales and wearing red accessories.

With academies in Burgess Hill, East Grinstead, Haywards Heath, Horsham, Crawley and Shoreham, Ariel has a history of fundraising, as in lockdown performers gave an online concert, raising £1,600 for disabled children’s charity The Kangaroos.
