Celebrating the impact of UKSPF in Sunderland

Creative organisations across Sunderland are using investment from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund investment to deliver ambitious, community-led projects that are transforming neighbourhoods and inspiring pride of place.
We’re pleased to be working with The Cultural Spring, Sunderland Heritage Partnership, Minerva Arts & Wellbeing, and Sunderland Culture on projects in Sunderland which show how place-based funding can unlock talent and opportunity, thanks to investment from the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
