1/2 Over the constituency border in Old Basford today to catch up with the fantastic @DDNottingham. They do incredible work to support people across Nottingham and Notts. Demand for their services is growing but they rely on grants and donations to survive.

The National Theatre is great but if that money was given to Nottingham it would fund every art, culture and community project that Labour are about to cut.
We’re providing £26.4m of funding for the National Theatre, a globally renowned institution.
The UK’s creative industries are a driver for economic growth - this funding will ensure the National Theatre's acclaimed productions can continue.

Fight For The Sheriff!
Because she fights for us!
@CouncillorQ has been suspended by @ng_labour for standing against the devastating cuts imposed on Nottingham.
Digging in the archives, we found a few of the causes she has supported to show why we must stand with her.

World Mental Health Day is tomorrow 🎉
Every year we use it to raise awareness. But not this year. This year we’re saying awareness is just the start. It’s time to act.
Sign our petition, fundraise, take that first step to support your own or someone else’s mental health. (1/2)

It has been brought to our attention that there has been some anti LGBTQ+ endorsement from a performer at the Groovebox Pride Festival which has not been organised by Notts Pride. We are really concerned about this and we reject Homophobia,Transphobia and Biphobia in our City.
