Creative Foundations Fund
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what the terms of the Creative Foundations Fund will be; and who will be eligible to apply.
Answered by Chris Bryant
The new Creative Foundations Fund will invest £85 million to support arts and cultural organisations across England to resolve urgent issues with their estates. This will ensure their buildings and infrastructure will provide improved user experience for visitors and will ensure they can be enjoyed by visitors for many years to come. Eligible organisations must be not-for-profit and show that their primary aims are cultural and their activities fall within the remit of ACE. They must have delivered cultural activity in the last 12 months and be able to demonstrate that the investment is business-critical to delivering creative or cultural activity. Full eligibility details in the guidance can be found on ACE’s website.
