Strategic Planning

We have been commissioned to write major strategic reports for Arts Council England and VisitBritain, as well as for local authorities, universities and individual arts organisations.

We focus on the organisation’s mission and we undertake extensive consultation with stakeholders so that we understand all the external and internal issues which might impact on the delivery of this mission.

We have been working with the Anvil Arts Executive Committee to produce the new Strategic Plan for the Anvil Concert Hall and the Haymarket Theatre in Basingstoke, and we have recently completed a major strategic review of culture for the City of Portsmouth.

We have undertaken Strategic Planning for:

• The new Shakespeare North Playhouse in Prescot
