Why I'm backing Plymouth's City of Culture 2017 bid.

With the continuing decline in its traditional marine and industrial infrastructure and the near catastrophic reduction in the size of the Naval Dockyard; Plymouth's future social and economic well being will likely both depend and centre on its potential as a tourist and leisure destination, in which an active, accessible and flourishing creative arts community will be nothing short of...

Is this what your website would say if it had a voice? How many of you have invested your time and in some cases, a not inconsequential amount of money, in a website only to leave it floundering out there in cyberspace fighting for its intergalactic life!
