“I’m absolutely thrilled to receive this award on behalf of the whole team at Curious Minds – all of whom work tremendously hard on a daily basis to improve opportunities and outcomes for young people.
Despite the difficult climate, Curious Minds continues to broker innovative partnerships and programmes that connect thousands of children to life affirming cultural and experiences. This award recognises the dedication of all the teachers and parents, schools and governors, cultural organisations and artists, children and young people who are choosing to work with us as champions for art and culture.”
