Engagement Update

We’ve now concluded the first stage of our conversation around the Cultural Strategy, through a range of vision workshops and working groups that brought together more than 200 creatives and community workers from across the city. The energy, passion, and desire for change in the rooms was strong, and we would like to thank everyone who got involved and offered their views.

The second stage of this conversation will involve additional workshops and discussions with smaller groups and individuals and will include a second digital survey. This survey was originally planned to run in April, but we have taken the decision to delay it until May. There are two main reasons for this. Firstly, the additional time will allow us to maximise its reach and make sure we involve as many people as possible. Secondly, this will allow us to avoid overlapping with the pre-election period before local elections in early May, meaning the survey can be fully publicised and shared by Sheffield City Council as well as our project team and partners.

We look forward to hearing your views when the survey launches on Monday 6^th of May.
