National Campaign for the Arts – NCA

Friends of Theatre has been a member of NCA for some years and we joined because we recognised the importance of its campaigning on behalf of theatre and other art forms. We felt we should support it – theatre is something in which we all believe but don’t have the clout to do anything ourselves beyond attending performances and making donations.

Since 1985 the NCA has provided a voice for the arts world in all its diversity. As the UK’s only independent lobbying organisation it has served its members by providing them with the skills, knowledge and opportunity to unite and speak up for the arts with one powerful voice. The NCA does not receive subsidy from the Arts Council or from any governmental or political body and thus is entirely dependent on membership subscriptions to carry out its vital lobbying and advocacy work.
