Financial circumstances. Inclusivity: LCB believes that ballet should be accessible to everyone and strives to make its programmes and performances inclusive and welcoming to individuals from all backgrounds.

Impact: LCB aims to make a positive impact on the lives of children and communities through dance, inspiring confidence, self-expression, and a love for the arts. The company's outreach work takes ballet into schools, care homes, and special needs centres in and around London, providing free dance experiences and access to quality performances for those who may not have the means or ability to attend live theatre productions. LCB also offers extensive training and performance opportunities for free to talented children from all backgrounds, giving them the chance to develop their skills and pursue their passion for dance. Recognised as a leader in creating original narrative work and introducing new audiences to ballet, LCB produces a new West End ballet each year, performed by talented dancers aged 9-16.

These productions showcase the dedication and talent of LCB's dancers and provide unique performance opportunities for young performers. In addition to its live performances, LCB maintains an online presence, with a shop where viewers can purchase recordings of past performances, as well as a YouTube channel featuring clips from auditions, rehearsals, and previous productions. By offering online access to their work, LCB allows individuals to experience the magic of ballet from the comfort of their own homes. LCB also offers summer schools with a Secret Garden theme, providing workshops and performances for children interested in exploring the world of ballet.

Through its commitment to excellence, inclusivity, collaboration, creativity, and impact, London Children's Ballet continues to inspire and change lives through the power of dance.
