Our Covent Garden theatre has been at the heart of London and British cultural life for three centuries. We are home to two world-class Companies: The Royal Ballet and The Royal Opera.

The Development and Advocacy Department (D&A) plays a vital role in this, by securing the Arts Council England grant (currently over £22m) plus raising over £35m revenue annually plus additional for capital, advocating to government and other influencers for our value and role in the community and sector, and in ensuring we deliver on our charitable mission, retain the best artists and crafts people, maintain our beautiful grade I listed building and continue to produce world class performances.
