RE: GRANT CUTS TO
NOTTINGHAM LESBIAN AND GAY SWITCHBOARD

Nottingham Switchboard has just received a letter from the new Notts Teaching Primary Care Trust saying that the consultation
procedure about Rushcliffe PCT's proposal to stop its grant produced a large supportive feedback from "stakeholders"
... that’s you! This convinced them to reverse Rushcliffe's proposal and maintain a grant to Switchboard. So, to the 100s of people
who signed forms, sent e-mails, made phone calls or wrote letters (including Kenneth Clarke MP) and to the 35 organisations which
added their support, we give our thanks. This good news means that, in the medium term, our basic service is no longer under threat.
We are, however, still struggling to fund important “extras” such as the £1500/year cost of QB and the £2000/year to continue our
work in North Nottinghamshire.
