Support Us

Ropetackle events are run by volunteers. If you would like to join the team of have any other skills that you would like to contribute please do get in touch. We are especially looking for people who would like to work on our children’s events during the day and work on our bars for busy (and a little bit noisy) gigs. Please email volunteer@ropetacklecentre.co.uk or pop in and see us. We can repay you with gratitude, opportunities to meet and work with some amazing people and seeing our events.

Ropetackle is indebted to the many individuals, communities and businesses who have generously donated their money, time and expertise to the venue. In particular we would like to thank Adur District Council for their support.

There are significant improvements still to be made in the forthcoming years… If you would like to make a donation big or small please Donate Now or get in touch via centremanager@ropetacklecentre.co.uk

A massive THANK YOU from everyone at The Ropetackle Arts centre.

Ropetackle couldn’t exist without the amazing support of the local community. In 2019 we faced the very real threat of closure.

We are overwhelmed and exceptionally grateful for the extraordinary efforts of our supporters which have secured our survival to 2023.

By becoming a patron, friend or sponsor you are making a fantastic contribution towards maintaining Ropetackle for the local community.
