It was confirmed last night in an e-mail to Tyneside Cinema staff that the board will soon be appointing the chosen independent review team.

Here is why we need an independent review away from the board: https://twitter.com/serialmam/status/1277051867911110656?s=20
Made up of trustees from:

Commercial Law Firm
Global social media management agency
Leading research and advisory company.
Hospitality Group
University
Leading energy and services company
(Another) Law Firm
A cinema chain known for underpaying its staff
A board chaired by a trustee that has been there for 15 (non-consecutive) of the past 20 years.
A board responsible for this statement
and this statement
A board victims of abuse at the cinema do not trust: https://twitter.com/MemphisMidnight/status/1278675502673342468?s=20
Is this the board we want appointing an "independent" reviewer, for being responsible for the well being of staff or to ensure the cinema survives beyond its name alone?
For reference here are the Showroom Cinema & HOME boards of trustees

Please listen to staff, listen to customers and most importantly listen and believe victims.
