What if health funding followed wellness not illness?
This is the question that sits behind our Create Health strand - a series of test projects to develop and understand how to live well. Our experience in Gloucestershire and evidence drawn from practice across the UK and internationally, confirms that arts, creativity and culture are a fundamental part of living well.
Statement re: Arts Council NPO Investment 2023-2026
CG’s take away from the new national and local funding picture is that there are many brilliant arts and cultural organisations who secured funding and just as many that didn’t. There was simply not enough funding available to meet the incredible aspirations and potential of arts and cultural organisations in England.
Arts Council England - Funding Decision
For some arts and cultural organisations Oct 26th is an important day when decisions about 3 year strategic funding from Arts Council England are made. Successful organisations will make up the National Portfolio becoming National Portfolio Organisations (NPO's) or Investment Principles Support Organisations (IPSO's).
CG is one of this group waiting to hear if we are successful with our application to become an IPSO for Gloucestershire.
