We are hugely appreciative of the help given by The Arts Council and their response to arts organisations during Covid-19. We plan to use the fund to strengthen our business model and operational practices, build resilience and develop more of an online presence. At a time when the arts are being valued as a healthy distraction from the current worrying crisis, we are determined to grow and develop so that we can engage with many more individuals and communities.
*Our on the ground activities are currently on hold and we are working towards offering a range of online resources. Read our Covid-19 Statement for when face-to face activities resume here.*
