Managed via the Consortium of Partnership Organisations, which is made up of additional funding partners including Craven District Council (lead authority), South Lakeland District Council, Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority and Lake District National Park Authority. Strategic delivery is managed by a creative board which includes additional cultural organisations.
The programme is funded from August 2017 – March 2020 and its main purpose is to understand the reasons for fewer 16 to 34 year olds than the national average living and working in the area and seek to address them, using arts, heritage and culture as the catalyst for economic, social and environmental change.
