We are working with Thanet District Council to set-up a brand new trust to secure assets for the creative sector.
The Margate Town Deal was awarded up to £22.2m as part of the Chancellor’s Budget announcement on Wednesday 3 March 2021. The funding will deliver the aspirations of Margate’s Town Investment Plan and help Margate prepare for the future with a focus on creating jobs, supporting town centres, boosting businesses and connecting people to where they live and work either through infrastructure or digital.
As part of the Town Deal there will be a £9m investment in Margate’s creative production and skills which includes establishing a Creative Land Trust to support projects for creative production and education. WorkWild and our partners at PRD will be leading the set-up of the Creative Land Trust.
