[Bars for Change] Ep2 Call to Action - AKALA and ARUBA RED on The Cuts

Last year, the Coalition Government announced over £80 billion of cuts to public services and government spending and everyone in the country is being affected.

NHS jobs are being slashed, disability benefits are being cut and local councils are being forced to close leisure centres, job centres and youth services.

But how are the cuts affecting you? We want to hear your stories. We want to know what you think about the government cuts - are they a necessary evil or unfairly targeting certain groups in society?

Let us know what is being cut out of your live and whether you think it's fair.

In the studio, the artists will incorporate your stories, lyrics and suggestions into an exclusive new track whilst the in the video, Jody McIntyre will explore the topic in more detail and find out what young people are doing to stop the services that matter to them being axed.
