Harrogate District Cultural Partnership

Photo@ Children participating in Harrogate's cultural parternshipThe Harrogate District Cultural Strategy (2003-2008) was approved by the Council in January 2003. Our vision is:

  • To put culture at the heart of improving people's lives in the Harrogate District

We have been keen to ensure that the strategy reflects the needs and aspirations of the local community, and supports the efforts of all organisations involved in cultural provision in the District.

A District Cultural Partnership has been set up, offering the opportunity to bring on board the various cultural sectors and representatives of voluntary organisations, community groups and individuals involved in culture across the District. The Partnership is supported by Harrogate Borough Council and is currently working on reviewing the Cultural Strategy with a view to producing a new strategy for 2009-2014.

Anyone interested in becoming involved in the Harrogate District Cultural Partnership or receiving more information should contact Les Williamson, Director of Community Services on 01423 556846 or use this link to submit the Enquiry Form
