Help to support the work of Birmingham Royal Ballet and secure our future by remembering BRB in your Will
Be part of our future
Whether supporting brand new productions or enabling young people to experience ballet for the first time, legacies have a significant impact on the work we’re able to do, helping us grow and flourish for generations to come. Gifts of all sizes support the work of the company, and enable to us to plan for the future with confidence.
If you or a loved one has taken great pleasure from our performances, please consider helping others to discover and enjoy our work in the future.
Carol’s story
In Carol’s lifetime she supported apprenticeships from Elmhurst Ballet School to join BRB. She continued this through her generous legacy, and her commitment supports an annual apprentice for one Elmhurst dancer to have their professional contract with BRB.
The performing arts were something that ran deep with every part of Sue’s life. She understood the power of the arts to enrich our lives, and she loved to share her passion with everyone around her. By supporting BRB, she hoped to help a new generation gain as much out of this extraordinary organisation as she did.Sue Alvarez’s legacy to BRB
‘When I learnt the apprentice dancer role was funded by a legacy , it made me want to dance my best for Carol. I would have loved to have met her and hugged and thanked her for this opportunity. The best way to honour her legacy is to share my passion for ballet with audiences at every chance I get.’
Sophie Walters was the first Apprentice in 2023

In partnership with NBB Law
The cost of a basic single Will with NBB Law is £200 plus VAT, and a basic mirror Will (for couples) is £300 plus VAT. For instructions that come through the Birmingham Royal Ballet, NBB Law are offering a special discount.
For the first 20 members that instruct us, the cost of a basic Will will be fully deducted from the Will instruction. This includes taking details of your assets, providing an overview of Inheritance Tax (IHT) as it applies to your estate, and offering relevant advice tailored to your estate planning needs.
If the Will instruction is more complex, such as needing a trust setup or other bespoke arrangements, NBB Law will provide a bespoke quote, but will still apply the discount for the basic Will cost to the overall instruction.
