We are delighted to announce that our production of Still Alice, which was performed at the Tivoli Theatre in May 2024, directed by Sali Pike, has raised £1,000 for Alzheimer’s Society.
Chairman Gary Paine said: “Thanks to the wonderful support of our audiences, Wimborne Drama Productions are delighted to make this donation to Alzheimer’s Society and we hope it will help support those living with Alzheimer’s and help fund vital research.”
On receiving the donation, Ross Boon, Regional Fundraiser for the charity, said: “We are extremely grateful to Wimborne Drama Productions for raising £1,000 for Alzheimer’s Society, from the proceeds of Still Alice.
“One in three people born today will develop dementia in their lifetime, and there are currently 900,000 people living with dementia in the UK. Alzheimer’s Society is here for everyone affected by dementia. Call the Dementia Support Line on 0333 150 3456 or visit alzheimers.org.uk for help and advice.”
