Would you like to play an active part in supporting the cultural life of the North West and High Peak?

The trustees of the Granada Foundation are looking for up to three new members for its Advisory Council, and at least one candidate with knowledge and experience of cultural activity in the Liverpool/Liverpool City region. We want to hear from people based in our region who have a good working knowledge of its cultural life either in terms of art form or geographic location and can help us encourage applications and advise the board in awarding grants.

The Foundation invests in imaginative proposals from organisations based in our region that will contribute to its creative and cultural life.
