Cultural Strategy - Residents Survey

Stirling's Cultural Strategy 2023-2028 aims to position Stirling as a vibrant, dynamic and creative place to be. Guided by three core themes – connection, catalyst and collaboration – the strategy is built on social justice and equality of opportunity.

The strategy is overseen by the Culture Board and delivered through the Place Partnership, a network of cultural organisations working collaboratively across Stirling. It focuses on six catalyst areas:

• Culture Night – showcasing Stirling's cultural strengths.
• Volunteering – building capacity and connecting communities to cultural projects.
• Social Prescribing – connecting culture with health and wellbeing.
• Skills Development – strengthening our creative workforce
• Film & Screen – establishing Stirling as a key Scottish film hub.
• Cultural Rucksack – ensuring equitable cultural access for all.

This baseline survey helps us understand the current cultural offer in Stirling and what residents would like to see in the future.
