A word or two of explanation probably needed here for more distant

But the local literary and artistic community is keeping its fingers crossed
like mad, because NR has a wide-ranging programme of sponsorship whose loss
would go very hard, now that the run-up to the Olympics is seeing Arts
Council funding cut by a third.
