NeB Partners
UnLtd – These are our best friends, for financial reasons. These guys helped us out hugely by giving us the helping hand we needed to get everything going with some lovely Lottery Funding. Special thanks to Guri, who keeps us on the straight and narrow.

Express FM – This is the home of NeB Air, carefully tended by a fellow called Simon. Express is our favourite Hampshire radio station because they share a lot of the same values as us. They don’t know what they’ve let themselves in for…..

Portsmouth City Council – A helpful City Council? Yeah, right. Actually, it’s true; Portsmouth’s got a good ‘un – from advice and help with distribution to empty shops and arts projects, they’ve pointed us in a lot of very interesting directions.

Business Link – This is where we found Simon and Jo. They’re a real pair of caped crusaders, ever ready to help a new business get started. They’ve also got an address book big enough to make the British Library’s eyes water.

CIBAS – This is actually spelt S-T-E-V-E F-I-S-H-E-R. He’s been with us from day one dishing out free advice. He’s got a pretty fearsome knowledge of how funding bids work – we couldn’t have done that bit without him!

Individual Threads – This cool new business is our purveyor of all things T-Shirt based. We get all of our trendy togs made by our top couturier, Jordan.

The Caravan Gallery – Run by a pair of wicked fools called Jan and Chris, The Caravan Gallery is a constant source of inspiration and enthusiasm for us. They’ve been really good sports by helping us out with distribution, taking NeB Mag to all four corners of the country.

The Empty Shops Network – A chap called Dan is in charge of this and it’s been a big part of our secret NeB Space plans. You’ll have to wait for more information about those though….

Workers’ Educational Association – We’re working with a lovely man called Tim-from-WEA on a really huge part of NeB Ed. We’ve just started work on a project designed to inspire young people (or ‘youths’) to get creative. We’ll keep you posted.

Mister Joe Black – This beautiful, beastly boy is one of our very favourite performers. Even though he’s an awful villain, we love him – he’s the genius behind the line up for The House of Burlesque (it’ll make your eyes water). Try and catch one of his shows, they’re… unusual.
