My @Daily_Express column today: Why I believe our artists, arts organisations, museums and libraries will be at the heart of our national recovery. At @ace_national we’re delivering a large part of the £1.57 billion @DCMS#CultureRecoveryFund to help it to happen #HereForCulture

A fantastic programme which is now open nationally for the first time. If you are a senior leader and interested in creative and cultural learning please consider. I have been a participant this year and it’s been great.
Thrilled to join the @ROHBridge's #LeadersForImpact programme. 2020/21 is the first national phase of the project, with still time to bring further regional representation to the table - see details below. Looking forward to advancing connected projects and practice nationwide.
