Highfield Youth Morris Dancers
Highfield Youth Morris Dancing are based in Farnworth and practice at Farnworth Cricket Club. We have Morris Dancing competitions every other Sunday in Hindley, and we have a big Championship every year where a number of troupes get together for a 4 day weekend of celebrations and Morris Dancing.
At present we have over 70 dancers and 8 different lines with dancers ranging from 3 year olds, to dancers well into their 50’s. Our troupe leader Vicky puts her heart and soul into the troupe, and all the supporters give their everything to make it a family-oriented group with lots of love and smiles.
We are looking to have some new dresses made for this years championship in October. Unfortunately, like everything else; the cost has become unmanageable to be paid for purely through the money raised by the troupe and its supporters. As such we are looking to get sponsors for our lines and for the troupe. We aren’t looking for much, but the sponsors will be advertised and will appear on all our social media pages, will be on all correspondence going forward, and their name will appear at our end of season awards ceremony where every dancer, and even some of our supporters receives medals and individual awards.
We have basic sponsorship when you can sponsor a dancing line for just £199.99. This sponsor will be kept informed of performances in each competition every other Sunday, and should that line win an award at the annual championships, the sponsor will be given a commemorative plaque that you can have for display within your business.
We are also looking for a full troupe sponsor who will sponsor the whole troupe from our tots line to our senior line. They will have a larger branding within our social media pages, and we could even have you named as our awards night sponsor if wanted. We can also provide you with a larger presentation at the awards night as a thank you for your support. The cost of this is £999.00.
We have over 250 supporters, be they parents, family members, friends etc and all our dancers and supporters are all located within the Farnworth and Bolton area. As such any sponsor will be seen on a weekly basis by all dancers and supporters, along with the visitors we receive on our social media. Only last month we had over 90,000 views on a TikTok post, with over 1000 shares which were seen by all friends of our troupe. That is a lot of eyes.
