WE had a 10% cut from our Local Authority and they are now proposing a 17/6% tapered cut for next year and the following years, which in about 4 years will leave us with nothing. We have found alternative sources of funding through small projects and used management costs to help with the cut, so this hasn't impacted YET on our beneficiaries. However, another bureau in our area has had to shut due to funding problems and their area is a very deprived ward, although not as much as ours. I am so concerned for the people in our area.
