A children’s arts charity in Darlington has secured a new sponsorship deal which it says will help expand its programme and bring more world-class cultural experiences to families across the region.
Theatre Hullabaloo, which is focused on delivering creative experiences for young people, has announced financial support from Northumbria Financial Management (NFM), a Durham-based financial planning firm.
Emma Rees, executive director and joint CEO at Theatre Hullabaloo, said: "We are thrilled to welcome Northumbria Financial Management as a sponsor.

"Their support will make a real difference to our work, helping us connect with more people and continue delivering memorable and beneficial creative experiences for our audiences.
"It is especially meaningful to work with a business that shares our commitment to nurturing long-term relationships and values positive impact for families and communities in our region."
Theatre Hullabaloo operates The Hullabaloo in Darlington, the only purpose-designed theatre for children and families north of London.

The venue offers a programme of ticketed performances alongside free creative activities throughout the year.
This autumn’s line-up includes shows such as After Party, a performance for children aged 0-2, and Not Now, Bernard, based on the popular children’s book by David McKee.
The centre will also stage two Christmas productions: The Yule Tree by HurlyBurly, making Christmas magical for little ones through the beauty of opera, and a festive twist on the classic tale of Little Red Riding Hood by Lyngo Theatre in association with Theatre Hullabaloo, where a wardrobe is a magical portal to the wild snowy wood.
