We are appalled that the Government is once again singling out arts & creative subjects for funding cuts in Higher Education. Many courses have already closed and a growing number are at risk. This attack on the arts must stop now. #ArtsEducationMatters theguardian.com/education/2024…

Did you know the Arts sector supports about 296,000 jobs, making up 1.1% of the UK workforce and contributing £7.7 billion to the economy? In Theatre, over 70% of these workers are freelancers. #FreelancersMakeTheatreWork

This sounds brilliant!

We have had a wonderful time meeting audiences in spaces they feel welcome and confident as part of this scheme. Viva Libraries - one of the last remaining 'third spaces' everyone can enjoy

'Everyone in Britain should be issued with a “universal library card” and children should spend 10% of their school time on arts activities, according to a new report.' buff.ly/4gsYHF8
