Over the last six months we have had eight artists in residence and a few more drop-ins here and there; they have made great things and we have been greatly boosted by the creative energy that they have brought to the club (and glad of income!).

Assuming all goes to plan, the longer term mix of life will have artists and creatives at the core, but with additional ingredients of good food, community provision and youth facilities. As and when details are finalised, we will share news.

We now have funds together to start serious building work so it will soon be a bit more obvious that something is actually happening with the club.
