Every year The Royal Theatrical Fund provides support for over 400 people of all ages who have worked in the entertainment industry.
They are people in need as a result of illness, accident or old age. The Fund assists by way of monthly allowance, one off grants, help with domestic bills and shortfalls in nursing and residential home fees.
The Fund dispenses more than money; applicants' needs vary and may not only be financial.
Those living alone welcome a friendly visit, a chance to talk and perhaps unburden anxieties. A telephone call can help relieve a sense of isolation.
The Directors are aware that many artistes find it hard to seek assistance. The desire to maintain independence in their own homes is understood and respected, as is complete confidentiality and a warmly compassionate response to any appeal.

Your ongoing support for me is what Christmas is all about... except you help all year!
Sometimes the hardest thing to do is ask for help...
