Nofit State in Partnership with Admiral
Nofit State are delighted to announce a two year partnership with Admiral that will take Nofit State Circus performers into Admiral offices across South Wales to stage 'guerrilla performances' and work with staff to explore risk and risk taking.
 
Nofit State are incredibly proud to be associated with such a dynamic and successful Welsh company and believe the partnership exemplifies the best of what can be achieved when arts organisations and businesses work together.

Louisa Scadden, head of communications, said, "Admiral Group plc is proud to be a sponsor of Nofit State Circus, as both organisations believe strongly in giving back to the communities they work in and supporting the communities around them.  Through our sponsorship we hope that Nofit State will continue to provide its unique events to the Cardiff community."

The Admiral Group plc launched in 1993. It was set up to target those motorists who traditionally pay higher than average premiums, including those under-35, living in cities or driving hot hatches. Admiral now has over 2 million customers.  Admiral has over 3,500 staff throughout the UK, Europe and North America and the company prides itself on its relaxed and friendly culture.  Admiral's philosophy is simple; People who like what they do, do it better.  

The partnership is supported by Arts & Business Cymru through the CultureStep Investment Programme.
 
Nofit State Go Big!
 Four Elms Funding From Big Lottery
 
Big Lottery announced today that they have awarded Nofit State a grant of £774,638 to support the development and renovation of 4 Elms in Adamsdown into a permanent home for the company and centre for community circus in Cardiff.

This is absolutely wonderful news and takes our fundraising campaign for 4 Elms onto the home straight.

We still have some way to go before we can start the wheel barrows rolling but this is an enormous step forward and would not have been possible without the support and help of many many hundreds of people.

Thank you all very much !!!!
