We changed thirdbar.co.uk to contain as much info about funding for musicians and as many links to top class UK & ROI mental health advice for all as we can find. We’ll update it as we go. Hopefully very soon to include new funds for crew and freelancers.

Loads of other brilliant conversations and interviews on here as well to enjoy.

These 5 charities supply food, support and aid to people in dire need all over NI, the demand for which has soared this year. They are helping bring people in our wee country a sense of normalcy and kindness this Christmas. Thanks to all these charities for the work they do. gL

We set up to help charities in Northern Ireland but I spent 14 years in Scotland & it gave me so much.
Massive thanks & love to @edibow and Eleanor bowman for their guidance choosing these amazing charities.

Things that stand out 1) Application will be kept simple an turnaround time kept short 2) Priority given to those who have been unable to access other forms of financial support from Gov/other sources. An interim package while the £33 million is worked out. Good step forward!
.@CommunitiesNI Minister @CaralNiChuilin has today announced the Creative Support Fund will reopen on 31 July with a £4m support package for the arts, creative industries and cultural sector communities-ni.gov.uk/node/4…
Great news for all the Arts in NI. Speaking as a musician though: @CommunitiesNI please make sure those struggling in Music in NI get their fair share of this fund. Great to see @CaralNiChuilin in @start_together studio in the @OhYeahCentre with @charlottedryden.
