The Creative People and Places Initiative 2026-2029 focuses on parts of the country where involvement in creativity and culture is significantly below the national average. It funds partners in local areas to empower residents to decide what kind of creative activity they want to experience on their doorstep.

Applicants can apply for between £750,000 – £1,000,000. A lead applicant must apply on behalf of a partnership of organisations which must include representatives from community and cultural organisations.
