The Trustees and Staff (paid and voluntary) of Wyeside Arts Centre wish to extend their deepest gratitude to every signatory of our On Line Petition to the Welsh Assembly Government’s Minister for Heritage, Rhodri Glyn Thomas AM. The volume of support from over 8,000 supporters has already had a significant impact on decisions concerning Wyeside’s future in the short term. We anticipate that your support will provide Wyeside Arts Centre the vigorous backing it needs to negotiate for a successful long term future.

We would also like to record that the thousands of written comments of support we have received have had a very positive effect on the morale of all staff and Trustees of Wyeside in these difficult times; as well as serving to illustrate to those who are unfamiliar with Wyeside Arts Centre just how much it is valued by such a diverse and widespread community of arts patrons.

Thanks to all of you and to the staff behind Go Petition who have made such a significant contribution to this very special Arts Centre.

Should anyone wish to remain informed of Wyeside’s attempts to avoid enforced closure and/or contribute further to our campaign please email us at guywyeside@powys.org.uk.
