Policy and Strategy for the Arts 1999

Cannock Chase Council adopted its policy and strategy for the arts in 1999. The main objectives are as follows:-

• to increase access to arts and cultural activities for all residents and to reduce real or perceived barriers which prevent or discourage people from taking part in creative activities.
• to gain social and community benefits for the district through the contribution arts can make to promoting community safety, providing opportunities for social participation and tackling exclusion and non-participation.
• to gain economic and environmental benefits for the district through the contribution arts can make to regeneration, to promoting tourism, through employment and investment and through improving the quality of the built and natural environment.
