Arts: Shropshire
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what steps she is taking to support the creative industries in (a) North Shropshire constituency and (b) Shropshire.
Answered by Ian Murray
There are creative industries clusters and micro clusters in every part of the UK and they are equally crucial to the delivery of our Growth Mission. We are keen to ensure that there are no cultural not-spots in the country and that everyone has an equal chance to pursue a career in the creative industries whether they live in a major metropolitan area or not.
The CI Sector Plan includes a universal offer to drive growth in the creative industries in any place in the UK, including North Shropshire, outlining new measures to break down barriers such as access to finance, supply of skills, and new support to kickstart innovation.
