Ensuring Creativity and Wellbeing for Generations in Doncaster
At darts, Doncaster’s award-winning creative health and learning charity, we believe that a creative life is a healthy life, lived to its fullest potential, and staff see the impact of the transformative power of the arts daily:
Attending [sessions with darts] has put me on the track to recovering the confidence I used to have. It’s been an invaluable stepping stone to rebuilding my life.

Now, during Small Charities Week 2025, we are launching a brand-new legacy giving scheme and inviting people to leave a gift to darts in their Will. Sophy Sylvester, Director (Fundraising and Development), at darts says:
By leaving a legacy to darts, you’re not just donating—you’re investing in lasting change, ensuring that generations to come can benefit from vital creative health and learning programmes.
In an increasingly complex world, the need for creativity, connection, and wellbeing is more critical than ever, and darts’ mission is to improve life, learning, and health by delivering creative health programmes with people in Doncaster. For over 30 years, darts has empowered people of all ages and abilities to overcome challenges, develop good health and wellbeing, and ignite their potential through creativity. But their work is far from finished.
According to The Legacy Giving Report (2024) every year, around £4.5 billion is donated by people leaving a gift to charity in their Will, with predictions that this will grow to £10.2 billion by 2050. Imagine the impact if just a fraction of that could help secure a brighter future for Doncaster – one where creativity is at the heart of community wellbeing.
By leaving a gift in your Will, you become a partner in our mission to enable everyone in Doncaster to learn and connect through creative programmes. You’ll help ensure that creativity remains an essential tool for building healthy, connected, and thriving communities for generations to come. Take the first step in leaving a legacy today by visiting our Gifts in Wills webpage or contact Amy Knowles on amy@wearedarts.org.uk to find out more.
