Why do we work together as a Hub?
In the UK, widening access to culture is central to the national government agenda
Government research into regional museums identified common problems such as declining visitor numbers
It also identified sections of the population that were under represented in museum visitors
5
Why do we work together as a Hub?
Renaissance in the Regions set up to address issues such as declining attendance with new funding
We share this RinR funding and work together with Hub partners towards common targets

Our audience targets
