Dance Manifestos
Vibrant and diverse, the UK dance sector, in all its forms, is a UK success story and one which must be celebrated and championed. As well as being a great UK art form, dance has a unique and important role to play in education, health and wellbeing, community cohesion, social mobility and diversity. Dance is at the heart of our UK creative industries.
The Dance Manifesto calls on politicians to:
- Enable every child and young person to have access to dance
- Ensure a thriving dance sector post-Brexit
- Harness the benefits of dance for public health and wellbeing
- Foster equality of opportunity for dance artists and leaders
- Improve dance artists’ working conditions
- Champion UK dance at home and abroad
