answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/06/2014 answer text <p>In 2011/12, according to Arts &amp; Business, overall philanthropic giving to the cultural sector grew by 7.6% on the previous year to £660.5 million. The breakdown of this total shows £536 million of private investment in culture in London and £125 million in the non-London English regions. Although London is always likely to attract a greater proportion of philanthropic giving, there are many examples of arts organisations successfully encouraging philanthropy and private investment across the country. DCMS has been working closely with Arts Council England, Heritage Lottery Fund and the cultural sector, through the £100 million Catalyst scheme, to help improve fundraising capacity and ensure organisations have the skills required to cultivate philanthropy.</p> answering member constituency Wantage answering member printed Mr Edward Vaizey question first answered 17/06/2014 10:16:22 answering member 1580 label Biography information for Lord Vaizey of Didcot
