Dr Paul Stephenson OBE, the man behind the Bristol Bus Boycott has sadly passed away. Last year we worked with Curiosity Unlimited to honour all the Boycott Pioneers - there are plaques dedicated to each of them in @wshed Cinema 3. Rest In Power Paul.

@wshed receives core public funding of Ā£757,000 per year from Arts Council England, which is currently our only core funding. I appreciate that this is a privilege BUT the Government last approved an inflationary uplift to ACE’s NPO grants in 21/22 - and it was only 1.84%.

Crunching numbers after the budget - a conservative estimate of the salary increases that @wshed will pay this year and next is the equivalent of 76% of our annual public funding from ACE. This factors in cost of living and today’s NI rise only - not utilities etc which have.
