Introduction to Culture Everyone

Culture Everyone

Adur & Worthing Councils are preparing a Cultural Strategy for the joint area. The purpose of the Strategy is to determine how best to support and develop the cultural offer which is so important to the local economy as well as the emotional and social wellbeing of residents and visitors. We believe that a Cultural Strategy will also help us to attract external funding to support develop and promote culture as well as give a clear direction as to how to create effective links and partnerships between the private, public and community and voluntary sectors.
