We work to protect the eco-system of the arts, heritage and creative industries for the common good; through administration and policy change.

Widening representation at Culture Counts

Culture Counts has a remit to advocate on behalf of the entire arts, heritage and creative industries. To do so effectively, it is important that our network is representative of the diversity of that sector and works to improve that diversity by taking active steps to engage with those who are (or have been) typically underrepresented in cultural advocacy. Not to do so risks perpetuating privilege and maintaining an unequal distribution of power and resources, as well as limiting the effectiveness of our claim to represent the whole of the sector. 

Networks

We achieve our mission and express our values through our Networks. See our list of current networks and groups here. If you see a group you would like to be part of, please get in touch.

#InvestInCulture

Ahead of the December 2024 Scottish budget, we worked with partners across the sector to launch a campaign calling for the Scottish Government to honour their commitments to invest in the future of the creative sector. #InvestInCulture called on Scottish Government to confirm a coherent timeline to achieve the promised increased investment of £100 million annually by 2028/29, including the incremental increase of £25 million next year.
