RTWSO Patrons

The RTWSO is a charity and receives no public subsidy. We rely on the generosity of our supporters – people who are passionate about music and the arts – to help us continue to bring the thrill of live music to audiences in and around the Tunbridge Wells area. Your support is needed now more than ever, as we recover from the effects of the pandemic.

Our Patrons’ Scheme

Our Patrons and Sponsors play a crucial role in helping us to achieve our ambitions. It is this vital support that enables us to stage exhilarating, high-quality concerts and bring world-class artistes to the area.

To help us ensure an exciting and secure future, please join our family of supporters and become a Patron or Sponsor by donating from as little as £100. With permission, all of our Patrons will be acknowledged in the concert programmes and on our website. If joining our programme before the end of July each year, Patrons also have access to an exclusive early booking window to buy season tickets.

We have four levels to choose from:

Diamond – minimum donation of £750 per year
Diamond Patrons are offered the opportunity to sponsor a Principal Chair of their choice for the duration of the season.

Platinum – £500 per year
Platinum Patrons are offered the opportunity to sponsor a soloist or specific work from the season’s programme.

Gold – £200 per year

Silver – £100 per year

To become a Patron please contact Alexandra Woollard at treasurer@rtwso.org
