leisure and culture
The Leisure and Culture team aims to encourage
a culture of creativity in Melton Borough by raising the Borough’s
profile as a vibrant and creative place, widening participation and
strengthening commuinities through arts, sports and
heritage.
Culture is essential to human fulfilment. As a human need, it
enhances the economy both directly and indirectly: where people are
more fulfilled they are likely to contribute more to their work and
to society. As a cultural borough, people of all ages and
backgrounds have access to participate in and enjoy all types of
arts and cultural activities.

town centre and priority neighbourhoods.
- Organises and manages projects linking with Melton’s corporate
priorities ie: environment, community safety, younger people.

- The Leisure and Culture team works with community groups,
individuals and other agencies to develop opportunities for people
living within the Borough and enjoy arts, sports and
heritage activities as audiences
and participants.
