              Sunderland MP helps lead ‘First of its kind’ inquiry into what Northern Culture needs to rebuild, rebalance and recover

              The Northern Culture All Party Parliamentary Group will launch its first Inquiry into what Northern Culture needs to rebuild, rebalance and recover. The Inquiry will shine a light on the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on Northern Culture and call for evidence from key voices and stakeholders across the North on how to increase diversity, sustainability, accessibility and resilience in Northern Culture.

              The six-month Inquiry will gather evidence and produce a bespoke State of the North report on Northern Culture, which will include recommendations to help inform, shape and influence future Government decision making and a Post-Covid Action Plan for Northern Culture.

              The Inquiry is led by the Northern Culture APPG’s Co Chairs, Conservative MP for Bury North James Daly and Labour MP for Sunderland Central Julie Elliott.

              James Daly MP said, “Northern Culture has been hard hit by the Covid-19 crisis and if it is ever to fully recover from the acute impact of the pandemic, Northern Culture needs immediate and long-term support to safeguard and protect its future.”

              “MPs and Peers from across the North are supporting the Northern Culture APPG Inquiry and we are determined to provide a strong voice in Parliament for Northern Culture, not just the cities of the North but smaller towns like my constituency of Bury North, who have great potential to flourish in the cultural sector but we need rebuild and recover from the pandemic.”

              “No matter your background or where you are from, you should have access to culture. The Northern Culture APPG is determined to make a difference and make sure Northern Culture has a roaring voice in Parliament.  I look forward to hearing evidence from voices across the North and building consensus and collaboration on what the North needs to level-up.

              Julie Elliott MP said, “I am proud to be the co-chair of the APPG Northern Culture as we today launch our Inquiry into how the Cultural Sector in the North can recover from the Covid-19 pandemic.

              “In our towns and cities across the North which once buzzed with activity, from live music shows, to theatre productions, to art galleries, and to nightclubs, it all, very suddenly, went quiet. Tickets weren’t sold, shows weren’t attended, opportunities disappeared, and ultimately, jobs were lost.”

              “This is why the return of the cultural sector post-Covid is so important. Not only does it enrich our everyday lives, but it provides highly skilled jobs to so many people, through the work of technicians, producers, electricians, stage managers and a range of different roles on all different levels. It’s a sector in which the UK is world renowned, exporting these incredible skill sets right across the world, with big industries seeking out those who have developed in the creative industries of the North of England.”

              “We cannot let the Cultural sector in the North fall by the wayside – and the best people to tell us how to stop this from happening, are the very people who made the sector so strong in the first place. Our APPG inquiry is an opportunity for the sector to make itself heard, and I hope that as many people can get involved and submit as possible.”

              Northumbria University, which has been chosen as the Inquiry’s Academic Partner, will co-ordinate and support the Inquiry. Professor Katy Shaw, Director of Cultural Partnerships at Northumbria University said:

              “The North’s cultural industry has been hit hard by Covid-19 and faces an historic challenge as the global pandemic continues to affect our everyday lives.

              “The strength of the North lies in its diversity. With that in mind, we would like to encourage everyone and anyone who wants to give evidence to step forward and speak-up. The Inquiry needs to hear your voice, your perspective and your thoughts on the future of Northern culture.

              “Northumbria University has a long and proud history of working with cultural partners and stakeholders across the North and beyond, and I have seen what can be achieved when academia and the cultural sector align in pursuit of a shared vision.”
