@ace_national @HENLEYDARREN @ace_thenorth @DCMS Fabulous news. Well done. :)

[Leon Patel @LeonSPatel]

@HENLEYDARREN @ace_national new emergency funding states only orgs registered with companies house and charity commission may apply. What about bencoms and other charity / social orgs supporting communities?Surely this is a typo? Please look into this with urgency. @ace_thenorth

[Co-operatives UK @CooperativesUK]

We've written to @DCMS SoS for Culture @OliverDowden asking that @ace_national Culture Recovery Fund include #coops regulated by FCA Mutuals. Not all ‘properly constituted’ cultural organisations are registered at Companies House. Pls amend criteria b4 Monday @HENLEYDARREN
