We're still collecting donations

On the 17th January 2024 we'd raised £292 with 12 supporters in 28 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.

In the true spirit of community and diversity, we are launching a heartfelt campaign to garner support for our cherished local grassroots music venue. Nestled at the heart of our vibrant community, our venue has been the backdrop for unforgettable events featuring live performances by acclaimed artists such as Snow Patrol, Twin Atlantic, The View, Texas, and other notable names. It has also been the stage for inclusive club nights and vibrant LGBTQ+ gatherings with appearances by Trixie Mattel, Jimbo and Courtney Act.

As we navigate the evolving landscape and strive to meet the diverse tastes of our community, we find ourselves facing unprecedented challenges. Living month to month, our venue, celebrated for its cultural significance, stands at a critical crossroads. Our aging roof and windows, weathered by the passage of time, demand urgent attention, but financial strains have left us in a precarious position.

The heritage listing of our building adds layers of complexity and costs to the restoration efforts, underscoring the urgent need for immediate community support. Repairing each window alone is estimated to cost up to £10k, presenting a staggering challenge for a venue living month to month.

Your generous contribution will not only help us maintain the structural integrity of our cherished venue but will also play a pivotal role in ensuring its survival as an inclusive and dynamic platform for various events. Amidst the financial strain exacerbated by the cost of living crisis, rates, and energy costs, your support is not just vital – it's a lifeline.

Every pound raised will directly contribute to our immediate survival, supporting not only the venue but also the dedicated staff who make it all possible. By purchasing our exclusive merchandise or making a donation to our crowdfunding campaign, you become a lifeline for us, helping us navigate through these challenging times.

In addition to the internationally acclaimed names that have graced our stage, our venue has been a vital supporter of local talent. From up and coming DJ Hannah Laing, Singer Be Charlotte, Drag Artist Ellie Diamond and band The Ruvellas. Your support, both financial and symbolic, will make a significant impact on our month-to-month existence and contribute to the continued promotion of local and global artistic expression.

Join us in this urgent collective endeavor to secure the immediate future of our local arts and music scene. Your contribution is not just an investment in our venue; it's an act of solidarity with a struggling community hub. Attend our events, be a visible supporter, and follow us for updates. Your steadfast backing ensures the immediate vibrancy and survival of our cultural hub, allowing it to remain a symbol of resilience and community spirit.
