You may have noticed that we were closed for a couple of days earlier in the month. This was for us to plan for the future of Oblong, to set out our direction over the next few years. Ten of us spent from the Sunday (12th) to Tuesday (14th) looking at where we are now, where we would like to be and how we are going to get there.

Steve has written an excellent report which you can download below.

Thanks very much to both of them for all their hard work in making a fantastic introduction to Oblong.

We are moving stuff around Oblong this Monday and Tuesday (21st and 22nd).
Come down and help out. There will be a free lunch and hopefully
lots of stuff to move!

Yeah !

Oblong has been awarded £60,000 from the Tudor Trust, over three years. This will help pay some of our overheads and staff costs. We will do the sums and work out exactly what soon. It will keep the wolf from the door, but we need around £110,000 per year to keep going at the rate we have been. We should hear from the Lottery before the end of June.
