Jonathan Coupe, Chairman of Stretford and Urmston Conservatives has welcomed the announcement that thanks to the Conservative Government, 990 organisations will receive a share of £446 million each year over the next three years.
This includes £413,889 for organisations in North Trafford – providing a long-term investment in our country’s talent and supporting the next generation of creators, performers and artists.
By targeting the Arts Council’s Levelling Up places, 78 designated towns and cities will receive £130 million of funding over the next three years. This is a 95 per cent increase in investment in these areas and will support new organisations, making sure that communities across the country benefit from investment in culture and the jobs which it brings.
Commenting, Jonathan Coupe said:
“The £413,889 being delivered by the Conservative Government will pay dividends across North Trafford, boosting our local economy, creating jobs in the area, and bringing our communities closer together.
“The Conservative government is widening access to arts and culture, so that everyone can enjoy the fantastic arts and culture on offer here in our community and the benefits that investment brings.”
