About our Culture Strategy

We’ve consulted, engaged, and collaborated with our residents, the community and cultural organisations to co-create a Culture Strategy with a clear long-term and impactful vision for the borough.  

In recent years, we’ve seen significant investment in culture and heritage across our borough, such as: 

  • the development of Woolwich as a centre for the creative industries 

  • the culture led regeneration of Thamesmead 

  • London’s first permanent design district on Greenwich Peninsula 

  • the refurbishment of the Tramshed  

We also submitted a collaborative bid to the London Borough of Culture – which has resulted in a Cultural Impact Award of £200,000 for delivery in 2026.  

We’re an ambitious borough and this culture strategy builds on success and a position of strength. We’re confident that the appetite for culture from our communities, provides the momentum needed to ignite this Culture Strategy and propel us forward to achieve our vision for 2030.
