The Fifth Annual Rochford Street Review Keep Alive Appeal
As we come up to renewal dates for our web hosting and email at the beginning of 2025 Rochford Street Review is once again facing a shortfall in being able to pay our bills and stay on-line. It has been a busy year for us, we have published two large issues as well as launching Issue 9 of the occasional literary journal, P76, as part of the 2024 Sonic Poetry Festival, along with an online supplement. While this year has been exciting, the added costs associated with P76 and organising an interstate launch, has placed added pressure on our finances. It is worth noting that we received no government or institutionalised support yet again in 2024.
