The Trinity Centre’s 100 Beacons research paper published last week aims to shine a light on what it claims is a disparity in council funding between community buildings and city centre flagship projects like the Bristol Beacon.
Trinity CEO Emma Harvey, who has been working in the community arts Grade II listed building for 15 years, is concerned about the impact of the budget on local communities and thinks the council needs to reassess the way they allocate funding.
Due to austerity measures taken by the government over the last 10 years, Bristol City Council has been involved in what is known as 'community asset transfers' as a way of reducing costs, while maintaining community buildings.
