Help! Banbury Museum has been told that Cherwell District Council is cancelling ALL of its core funding.
There is a very tight deadline - Friday 19th December - to tell the Council what you think.
Please respond to the consultation and share this post

Portland, I feel like I must know folks who know exactly what to do here!
A family member in Portland Oregon died unexpectedly and left behind a 2 year old husky who is currently on a 5 day hold in a shelter while I try to figure out a way to get her to me here in Portland Maine so that I can adopt her...without it costing All the Money.
Anyone have any ideas?
