It’s week 4 of our annual arts health check 🩺 Today, we look at Arts Funding with @WhatNextCulture

Keir Starmer is asked whether there will be a Department of Culture, Media and Sport after the next reshuffle. He replies: "Yes".

Proud to join @BobandRoberta, @jrapepper & 30+ organisations backing @ArtsMindsCmpgn yesterday, to deliver an open letter to the Department for Education. Arts education matters. The government must act to ensure every child, at every school, has access to the benefits it brings
