Ten year strategy: autumn 2018 consultation findings

This report shares the broad range of opinions we heard when we consulted museums, libraries, arts organisations, funders, policy makers, local authorities, education and beyond on our draft strategic framework, Shaping the next ten years, including our case for change and seven proposed outcomes. We also explored ideas about how we might work together to achieve those outcomes.

From 1 October 2018 to 2 January 2019, we listened to voices from across the cultural and creative sectors at workshops we held around the country, captured views through an online consultation and held an additional six sessions specifically with children and young people.

After giving people the opportunity to tell us their thoughts, we’ve considered everything we’ve heard and are currently drafting our proposed strategy for the next ten years and a plan for delivering it.
