We would like to say a huge thank you to our Autumn troupe who have helped so many families make special memories together! They really are a hardworking bunch, from building up the Big Top to putting on an breath-taking shows every other day.

To every business that has made a donation or sponsored our Autumn shows, thank you. You truly are local heros! It is thanks to you caring about your community that our shows are possible.

Finally, thank you to everyone at our head office who works so hard behind the scenes to get our show on the road, from fundraising to booking the sites. Now lets get ready for our Winter tour! 🍿🎟✨ #CircusStarr #CircusWithAPurpose #TeamWork #2019 #Troupe #inclusive #Accessible #DreamTeam #ThankYou

This is such an insightful read from @samrenke !https://metro.co.uk/2020/02/11/what-does-being-ableist-mean-12221655/

"Your show always means so much to our families who are often in a sad and stressful time in their lives; you lighten hearts and provide a much-needed distraction from daily worries and concerns."

Barnardo's Midlands

"For about the past 4 years now we have gone to Circus Starr and it's always been amazing, it's one of the only things my son likes to do/go to, he's blind and autistic as well as many other disabilities but he loves Circus Starr."

Samantha, Mum (Stoke)

"The staff are kind, accommodating and understanding so everyone can just forget their worries under the magical spell of the starry canopy"

Down Syndrome Support Group (Huddersfield)

"Circus Starr is a superb organisation with which Dilitas has been honoured to be connected with for several years. The simple process of bringing disadvantaged children and families together for the excitement and fun of the circus is an exceptional idea. Circus Starr needs and deserves all the help and support it can get and we have been delighted to help."

Christopher Cully, Managing Director of Dilitas Ltd

"It isn't always easy to find an event that caters for families where there is a child with a disability / additional needs."

Children and Young People's Disability Partnership (Stockport)

“The big top is filled with laughter from everyone. This is what inclusive really means, people, pulling together to spread joy and happiness."

"Circus Starr allows our Young Carers to attend an activity with their families, which they don't often get to do. It's a chance for them to have a break from caring."

Young Carers (Bristol)

"Live performance is a fantastic experience especially for young people with Autism as no language is required so it is very accessible."

National Autistic Society (Cardiff)
