You make wonderful art
Art that tells great stories, uplifts us, gives us joy and inspires us. At Red Frock we are all involved in different ways with different parts of the art and culture worlds and we want you to be able to carry on doing that long into the future. To do that, you sometimes need help telling the story of what you do, to the right people and at the right time. You also need to tell that story to the public.
We help arts and culture organisations like you tell the stories of what you do, to the people who need to hear it, whose support you need to be able to carry on doing what you do best.
This might be policy makers – national and local – or potential donors, or the public.
Why Red Frock
Red Frock Ltd was established by our CEO, Baroness Thangam Debbonaire, in Autumn 2024. Since that time we have grown as a team and can call on a wide range of people to assist us in helping you, according to your needs.
We are a unique combination of people with a unique combination of skills, knowledge and experience: parliamentary, government, fundraising, philanthropy, business, political engagement, arts and culture, communications, charitable organisations, research and more. We also have a wide range of contacts across all of these worlds.
This means we know, or know how to find, the right people for you to be talking to, what they need to hear from you, when to talk to them, and how to make the most of this.
We know how to tell stories in ways which will help you to build, maintain and make use of those relationships which matter to help you to make sure the policy makers, politicians and the public they represent, funders and other key people know why you matter and what they need to do to help you to keep doing what you do so brilliantly.
What we don’t do
We don’t lobby on your behalf — because we believe you are the best advocate for what you do. Our aim is to help you build the skills and confidence to do that well, and then not need us anymore.
