Delivery & Ownership
This strategy has been adopted by Kent County Council and is supported by the Kent Cultural Transformation Board, whose purpose is to connect the cultural sector in the county, creating opportunities for engagement and enabling collaboration with partners.
The strategy will work alongside the individual business plans and artistic ambitions of Kent’s creative sector, the strategic plans of key stakeholders such as Arts Council England and Historic England, and Kent County Council’s Strategic Statement 2015 – 2020.
An implementation plan sets out detailed outcomes under each of the high level aims emerging from the key actions: Create, Innovate and Sustain. The plan will be published online and will be a live document capable of regular updating.
The vision and key themes of the strategy should also be viewed alongside plans from other stakeholders, in particular the South East LEP Strategic Economic Plan, Towards A National Prospectus for The Creative Economy in the South East and the Growth and Infrastructure Framework. Key partnerships include What Next?, South East Local Enterprise Partnership, South East Creative Economy Network, Kent and Medway Economic Partnership and the Thames Estuary 2050 Growth Commission.
