Roll Up, Roll Up! What’s It All About?
This September we’re inviting you to take part in our cheekiest fundraising challenge yet – The Emergency Loo Roll Giveaway. It’s all in aid of our appeal to refurbish the Theatre Royal Winchester stalls toilets.
45 chances to win
44 winners will each get their very own toilet roll (yes, really!)
1 lucky winner will take home the legendary ‘Who Gives a Crap’ Orange Emergency Roll AND a VIP Panto Package for this year’s Puss in Boots.
It’s a playful way to raise vital funds, with every entry helping us save our loos for the future.
Each entry costs £5. Multiple entries are allowed – every £5 = one entry.
Enter by making a £5 donation via our Crowdfunder page or in person at the Theatre Royal Winchester Box Office during September 2025.

Our theatre loos have worked hard for decades and urgently need upgrading. By joining in with the Give a Crap: Save Our Toilets campaign, you’ll help us complete this final phase of refurbishment and make Theatre Royal Winchester welcoming for everyone.
