An arts centre has made “in the region of 10%” of its staff redundant and is to slash its opening hours amidst what it described as “significant financial challenges”.
Bosses at Eden Court Theatre in Inverness said the impact of inflation and the “slow return” of audiences after the pandemic had impacted them, with cuts being made in order to keep the centre open.
With staff costs accounting for 50% of spending, the theatre said it had just concluded a compulsory redundancy process “losing in the region of 10% of staff from the 143-strong workforce”.
