Wales cannot afford to keep treating the arts as expendable

James Downs, Mental health campaigner As we heads towards the Senedd election in May, there is remarkably little evidence that the arts and culture are being treated as a serious political priority. When the arts do appear in political debate, they are too often framed as optional: nice to have when times are good, easy […]

DARC radar plan re-kindles an old battle in Pembrokeshire

Campaigners in Pembrokeshire challenge a US-UK space radar plan. Is DARC defence—or a risk to health, jobs and sovereignty?

From the Aloud newsletter:

"The Big Give Arts for Impact campaign is now live, and from now until midday on 24 March, every donation made to The Aloud Charity will be doubled through match
funding.

For the next seven days, every pound donated will go twice as far in supporting boys and young men across Wales through Only Boys Aloud.

Double your donation today

£10 becomes £20

£50 becomes £100

£100 becomes £200

Donate now:
https://donate.biggive.org/campaign/a05WS00000ADgA9YAL

Every donation helps more boys and young men find confidence, friendship and a place where they feel they belong. For many, Only Boys Aloud is the first time
they truly feel part of something positive and supportive.

Our goal this week is to raise £3,000 to grow the impact of Only Boys Aloud, enabling even more boys and young men to discover their voice, build resilience and feel part of a community that celebrates their potential.

Now is the moment

Because match funding is limited, donations made earlier in the campaign have the greatest chance of being doubled.

If you were planning to support Aloud, now is the moment to act.

Your support today will help ensure that more young people can experience the confidence, encouragement and life changing opportunities that being part of Only
Boys Aloud provides.

If donating isn’t possible right now, you can still make a difference by sharing this campaign with friends, family or colleagues who believe in supporting young people.

Every donation, every share and every act of support helps bring us closer to our goal.

Thank you for being part of the community that supports Aloud and the young people at the heart of our work.Together, we can double the difference.

With sincere thanks,

The Aloud Team"
