Therese has welcomed Suffolk’s success in securing significant funding from the government’s Cultural Investment Fund, which has been announced today.
The Leiston Long Shop Museum, which keeps alive the industrial heritage of East Suffolk, has received over a million pounds from the Museum Estate and Development Fund. Whilst Suffolk Libraries have scooped £219k from the Libraries Improvement Fund.
Therese said: “This is great news for our part of the country. These funds are vital in improving people’s access to the arts, supporting local economic growth and safeguarding important local collections for future generations and I’m delighted Suffolk has been a big winner today.”
