Chief executive on today’s Sunday Politics Show @ArtsCouncilNI ‘£33m has wide footprint to cover, whole ecosystem of arts and culture in NI, previously so underfunded; it is needed in it’s entirety’ @BBCPolitics @PaulaBradleyMLA @CommunitiesNI
6 months later we are the only sector still closed! The impact has been gargantuan, we need this £33m injection asap! Mounting redundancies, artists literally starving and treasured orgs going to the wall. More of this advocacy & more action please 🙏
