Culture Commons was commissioned by the National Performing Companies of Scotland (NPCs) to support them in making the case for investment ahead of the Scottish Government’s budget.
Together with the companies, we worked to:
Audit the collective reach of their work with people across Scotland, the UK and globally
Understand the policy priorities of the Scottish Government - including those of the Cabinet Secretary and the First Minister
Aide them in communicating their reach and impacts to key figures within Scottish Government
Our culminating report helped the National Performing Companies of Scotland secure their first substantial uplift in direct annual funding (£700,000) from the Scottish Government in over a decade.
