Why Now?
The UK’s arts and third sectors face mounting challenges, from rising operational costs and cuts to public funding to an over-reliance on short-term financial support. These pressures are particularly acute in regions like the North, where limited infrastructure and reduced access to cultural opportunities widen the gap between communities. The ongoing cost-of-living crisis further compounds these issues, affecting audience participation and engagement with the arts.
Despite these challenges, the demand for bold, creative solutions has never been greater. The arts are uniquely positioned to address pressing issues such as mental health, social cohesion, and community resilience. However, without sustainable support, organisations risk being overstretched and underfunded, limiting their ability to deliver impactful, high-quality programmes.
By partnering with Global Grooves, you help address these inequities and champion community-driven solutions. Together, we can foster open access to creativity, ensuring that communities in underserved areas experience the transformative power of the arts—bringing joy, connection, and inspiration where they’re needed most.
