Our Cultural Vision

Our vision is to make Royal Greenwich a place where creative people, innovation and cultural connections inspire, encourage and flourish.

Culture is all around us in the abundance of greenspaces and riverside places, in our world heritage sites and contemporary town centres, in existing communities and new housing developments, our transport and connections, and the historic buildings that are finding new purpose and relevance.

We are a borough where our diverse communities come together to create, tell stories and make fantastic things happen. We'll make Royal Greenwich a place where young people can learn, find work, and thrive. Our centres of learning and research will nurture talent and ensure opportunities for all to flourish. Our ambitions are driven by the need to create sustainable carbon neutral and inclusive future.

We will be a borough where: 

• people thrive in places of creativity and heritage - by our riverfront and in our open spaces, cultural and heritage sites and world class museums and collections
• creativity and innovation fill our cultural and heritage places, attracting national and international visitors and inspiring local people – particularly the next generation
• our story constantly evolves, with new untold stories explored and shared through culture and heritage, inspired by the full diversity of our communities
• people can be creative together and make fantastic things happen where we live
• everyone can flourish and be nurtured by taking part in culture and heritage
• there is national recognition for the ways that our community are enabled to create, connect and flourish in achieving our shared vision
• our shared vision and ambition for culture will see our communities Create, Connect and Flourish
