Written Question
Arts: North West
Thursday 16th January 2020

Asked by: Andy Carter (Conservative - Warrington South)

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

What steps her Department is taking to support further growth of the creative industries in the North West.

Answered by Nigel Adams

Government and industry launched a Sector Deal for the Creative Industries in 2018, with more than £150m of funding. This aims to unlock growth for creative businesses across the country, and the North West benefits from a number of programmes within the Sector Deal.

These include a Creative Scale Up programme to help small creative businesses access the finance they need to grow and is launching today in the Manchester region.
