A cultural renaissance

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
