We want culture to be the heartbeat of Bolton, we want it to cut through everything that we do because we believe that culture characterises us as people, links us to a place, and connects us in a community. It provides inspiration and entertainment. It is the context for interaction and cohesion. As we seek to build a strong and distinctive Bolton, our culture will define us and binds us together. It is a shared vision, and we will all benefit from its success.
Our Facebook and Instagram handles will be changing to Culture Bolton
