Belgian festival organisation faces closure

Intro is a great organisation - every year, it takes hundreds of people with disabilities to festivals all over Belgium.

Or it has up until now. The Belgian government has tried to shift responsibility for funding Intro from the finance ministry to the culture ministry. The culture ministry can't afford to pay for the whole program from its own budget, and so - unless something happens to change minds in Brussels - people who need a bit of a helping hand to get round festival sites will wind up missing out.
