Find Your Talent

Find Your Talent is the pilot cultural offer for all children and young people. The programme is aiming to ensure they have access to the wide range of quality and sustained cultural experiences they deserve, both in and out of school.

The programme aims to help them to discover new things, to express themselves, to develop a passion and to make the most of their talent – whether it is music, art, film, theatre, dance, digital media, exploring libraries, museums or heritage.

There is strong evidence that these kinds of cultural experiences contribute in powerful ways to personal development, including enhancing life skills such as creativity, problem solving, self-discipline, teamwork and good communication as well as building confidence – all strong foundations for academic attainment and employability in the future.

Find Your Talent is investing ￡25 million across ten pathfinder areas and a small number of other national programmes until 2011.
