With our cultural and other strategic partners, we will champion the benefits of a more diverse workforce to the arts.

We expect National portfolio organisations to recruit openly and pay interns, following employment law and best practice.

We will work with strategic partners such as Creative and Cultural Skills, the National Skills Academy and through strategic partnerships with central and local government, enterprise agencies and further and higher education, trusts and foundations to identify financially sustainable interventions leading to more tailored entry level opportunities in the arts to both graduates and non graduates.
