Mumbles Movies goes from strength to strength

Published under News, Home by The Editor on Thursday 19 March 2009

Another large audience enjoyed the warm atmosphere and the film ‘Easy Virtue’ last Friday night at the Ostreme Centre. Before the film started, the audience was informed that Mumbles Movies has just been awarded the maximum lottery grant of £5000 towards the cost of buying their own cinema equipment. Together with the £1000 pledged from Mumbles Development Trust this allows the purchase of a larger screen and a modern projector. Currently Mumbles Movies has to hire this equipment. The aim of Mumbles Movies is to be able to buy all of its own equipment, including its own sound system, so that it would be able to offer a greater service to the community, showing more films and also the possibility of taking the service further afield. Ways to fund the sound system are currently being explored.
