Creative Foundations Fund
We welcome the government announcement of a new £85m fund for urgent capital works in venues, as part of the Arts Everywhere Fund.
Joshua McTaggart, CEO of Theatres Trust says:
"Theatres Trust has been making the case for the urgent investment in theatre buildings, so we are thrilled that the government has announced its £85m Creative Foundations Fund. We know from our research and industry knowledge that this funding is desperately needed by so many theatres across England.
Our diligent team is primed to advise and support theatres up and down the country as they begin their journey on developing and delivering new capital projects, and we encourage people to make use of Theatres Trust's free impartial expert advice service as they develop their applications.
We will continue our conversations with the government to ensure that our nation’s theatres receive the support they need to thrive and play a vital role in their communities."
