To provide comment and inform the development of BRIEF FOR the Culture Plan and a Libraries Plan for Croydon THE Council. COMMITTEE: 1 Executive Summary 1.1 Both a Cultural Plan and a Libraries Plan are currently in development for Croydon and due to be agreed at the May Cabinet later this year. Both will respond to the current challenges and opportunities for these areas and build on the strengths and achievements. This report outlines current provision as a background report to the SWOT analysis presented at committee and sets out the draft priority themes of both plans. 2 A cultural plan for Croydon 2.1 The support of culture in Croydon within the context of the regeneration taking place has been a priority over the last 3-5 years. The focus during that time has been on activity; the major redevelopment of the Fairfield Halls and securing an operator for its future, on supporting the cultural sector in Croydon and creating opportunities for it to grow, on the consolidation and development of a calendar of cultural events and on building partnerships both in and outside of the borough. The development of a Cultural Plan for the Borough is now timely, to build on this growing groundswell of activity and create a framework for activity for the next 5-10 years. -

Leader of the Council Cabinet Member Bulletin Councillor Tony Newman July 2020
Leader of the Council Cabinet Member Bulletin Councillor Tony Newman July 2020 LATEST NEWS Croydon Council Covid-19 Response Over the past four months we have been through unprecedented times and I am proud of how Croydon Council staff, elected members, Croydon NHS, the Voluntary Sector and all our other partners have responded to the Pandemic. Together we have ensured that Croydon’s most vulnerable residents, businesses and communities have been supported through these difficult times. However it remains important that we remember all those that have lost their lives due to the pandemic and our thoughts remain with families who have lost loved ones. Croydon has faced significant pressure, both in terms of the new demands placed on our services and financial pressures. The Council’s Cabinet has been meeting informally on a daily basis throughout the pandemic and Cabinet Members continue to work closely with officers to inform the Council’s recovery plan for the future. The LSP has met on a weekly basis, using technology to support virtual meetings. These meetings have provided an excellent opportunity for all partners to receive the latest updates, ask questions and coordinate actions. Like other local authorities across the country Croydon has spent millions on supporting our community through Covid-19 – from swiftly setting up hubs to deliver food and essential supplies to thousands, to providing welfare support to many, many more. AMBITIOUS FOR CROYDON Leader of the Council Cabinet Member Bulletin Councillor Tony Newman July 2020 Yet despite assurances from the Government at the start of this pandemic, that we would be fairly funded for this work, to date councils have only received a fraction of what they have spent. -
