Extraordinary News Update - (Horti)Culture Recovery
We are one of 445 organisations in the first wave of Culture Recovery grants. This was a fear of failing fund for organisations under threat. In our application we said we weren’t under threat - but that without support we could fail to develop as we needed to meet new challenges. We can now. The cash award is modest, but everything we asked for, at £21,120. The recognition of the importance of what we do is huge. Thank you to everyone helping to make this happen.
