posted in: All News, UK | 0

The government has announced a £1.57bn rescue package to help Britain’s arts, culture and heritage industries weather the impact of coronavirus, after leading figures from the world of theatre, music and museums warned of widespread venue closures and job losses.

Thousands of organisations across a range of sectors including the performing arts and theatres, heritage, historic palaces, museums, galleries, live music and independent cinema will be able to access emergency grants and loans via the scheme, which represents the biggest ever one-off investment in UK culture.
