The "Big Picture"

With an initial investment of £11,000, Kirklees Most Wanted represents a Value for Money ratio of 18.7:1. For every £1.00 of funding, the project delivers £18.67 in direct and indirect economic value to the Kirklees district.</p> <p>We aren't just "supporting" music; we are functioning as a Regional Creative Agency that provides over £190,000 worth of professional services for free to local constituents. This is a massive "levelling up" tool because it gives Kirklees and surround area artists the same professional polish as artists in London or Manchester without the prohibitive costs.
