Cultural Development
SportaCulture will aim to demonstrate the role of leisure and cultural trusts in managing and developing cultural facilities (which include libraries, art centres, theatres, museums, cinemas etc.) and programmes across the UK. By providing an effective service with initiatives that are based in and respond to the needs of the local community, leisure and cultural trusts have an important role to play in achieving both social and economic outcomes.

Culture Warrington - Cabinet of Curiosities
Warrington Museum creates a Cabinet of Curiosities
The scheme originated in the celebrations of Warrington Museum's 150th anniversary of its current building in December 2007 which provided the focus for planning how one of the earliest local museums in the country could adapt to serve the needs and aspiration of its present and future communities without compromising the value of the building and its associated collections as heritage assets.
