You will be expected to demonstrate how you met those themes in your evaluation. Please select the buttons of only those that apply - your project doesn't need to meet all 5 themes.

The LBOC programme will focus on five key themes, harnessing the power of culture to:

CONNECT: Connect people to life-changing experiences – opening the doors to creative jobs, discovering heritage and meeting people where they are, so that we can fall in love with arts and culture.

UNITE: Unite, because we are better together, united by aspiration to imagine a brighter future for people, communities and our borough

HEAL: Because building arts and culture into healthcare helps us thrive. By approaching wellbeing holistically, culture can support people body and soul, to live better

NOURISH: Creating the conditions for young people to express their creativitiy and be part of their communities

ACTIVATE: Inspiring people through culture to take real steps to reduce pollution and their carbon footprint; reconnecting people with sustainable living and the natural environment
