Supporting Creative Industries

The Cultural Partnership Board brings together representatives from across the cultural sector, including museums, theatres, artists, musicians and local venues. The Board provides strategic direction and ensures that members of the North Norfolk Cultural Partnership are fully represented in discussions and decision‑making forums across Norfolk.

For 2026 the Cultural Partnership Board will be coordinated by Beth Graham, based at Sheringham Little Theatre and supported by North Norfolk District Council. Her role will be overseeing administration, events, networking, and training opportunities throughout the year. Please feel free to contact her at nncp@sheringhamlittletheatre.com

To become part of the Cultural Partnership please contact us. Membership for 2026 is FREE. 

Feasibility Study

North Norfolk District Council commissioned a feasibility study to explore how culture and tourism could stimulate economic growth in the region.

This report supports the implementation of North Norfolk District Council's (NNDC) Corporate Plan objectives and Economic Strategy, with a particular focus on:

Community Development

• Ongoing support for cultural assets across the district, ensuring cultural opportunities are accessible to everyone.
• Collaboration with partners to foster and expand participatory community sports and cultural events.

Cultural and Creative Sector Strategy

• Identifying existing cultural programmes and creating connections to enhance and promote cultural opportunities for local residents.

The study, which was funded through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF), includes valuable data along with a series of recommendations and next steps.

CtConsults provided the final report, which NNDC is pleased to endorse as a foundation for ongoing discussions about the role of the creative sector in North Norfolk's economy.
