The newly appointed culture secretary Lisa Nandy has promised to use the cultural and creative industries to drive economic renewal.
In her first national address to industry leaders this week, Nandy outlined her vision for the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS), saying that drive, creativity, inclusion and a willingness to do things differently would be “the spirit of our new government”.
Nandy acknowledged the “neglect” of cultural institutions. Speaking at the Science and Industry Museum in Manchester, she said: “This museum, like so many of your institutions, help to shape and define us as we shape and define them. We pass them down from one generation to the next. And we neglect them at our cost.”
