Here for Culture

WTW-SCOTT Cinemas are delighted to have been awarded funding from the DCMS Culture Recovery Fund during both Rounds 1 and 2 of funding, so that we can continue to be here for you and #HereForCulture. With over 75 years of operation in UK cinema exhibition, this year has undoubtedly been our most challenging for the WTW-SCOTT Cinema Group, but we now look forward to continuing to bring the Big Screen Experience for many years to come.

Culture creates jobs, supports livelihoods, and brings joy to everyone. The UK leads the world in the creative industries and we can all feel pride in that. 

Now, in these challenging times, it’s our turn to show our support for culture. With an unprecedented investment through the £1.57bn Cultural Recovery Fund, the government is #HereForCulture so it can weather the storm of coronavirus and come back stronger. 

And we are #HereForCulture too. 

#HereForCulture is a movement that unites the public, government and cultural organisations in support of our fantastic cinemas, theatres, music venues, museums, galleries and heritage. 

With more and more culture being curated online, there is no better time to support and enjoy all the new and exciting ways culture is available to us. 

By being #HereForCulture, we aren’t just supporting the people in the industry, we’re also supporting communities across the country.

The Group would like to acknowledge both the DCMS for the Culture Recovery Fund, and the BFI in representing the interests of the UK independent cinema sector.

The values awarded to WTW-SCOTT Cinemas Southwest Ltd are as shown below:

No awards were made for Barnstaple. * Final award values may change at the conclusion of the funding round (July 2021).
