Labour (Co-op) — Leigh and Atherton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 28 November 2024

Debate

Creative Industries

Contribution

Many individual artists in places such as Leigh and Atherton have great difficulty in accessing funding streams. In many cases, the trickle-down from larger institutions does not work and holds back creative growth. Can the Secretary of State outline how funding will reach grassroots artists, empowering them to thrive and play a central role in growing our local economy?
