This is a real opportunity for our community to make sure key issues are recorded clearly, including the ongoing gap left by the closure of the Riverside Theatre, and what’s needed to support community-led cultural activity in the meantime.

The Council has said they want to hear from residents, community organisations, artists and creative practitioners, heritage groups, volunteers, service users and stakeholders.
