Greentop Community Circus Centre is the only Circus School in Yorkshire, northern England, and was established in 1995 on the TV programme Challenge Anneka,[1] and is one of three UK circus schools providing accredited level training courses in circus skills.[2]

The school was founded and run by volunteers before investment from the Arts Council England,[3] provided funds for paid staff.[4][5] Public funding is complemented by earned income through social enterprises.[2]

The school is a founder member of the UK Circus Training Action Group alongside three other UK circus schools: The Circus Space, Circomedia, and Skylight. It is based in the former church of St Thomas, Brightside.[6]
