A grant for £4,000 has been given to Studio 4 Dance CIC (Community Interest Company) which operates from a unit in White River Place in St Austell town centre. The dance studio is involved with around 250 families each week and its coffee shop is well used by young mothers in the town. The studio supports fun days in the town centre, events run by St Austell BID (Business Improvement District) and the annual St Austell Festival of Children’s Literature. The non-for-profit company also provides space for college performing arts courses. Studio 4 Dance applied for a town council grant in the face of rising costs. Councillors praised the studio as “an excellent community facility in the town centre” and voted to approve the £4,000 grant.
