Chair of Southampton Forward
“I was captured by the spirit and the passion on display during the Southampton City of Culture Bid for 2025. By bringing together Culture, Festivals and Events, and Tourism under one umbrella, we can harness the potential, creativity and ambition within Southampton, to achieve what we all know our city is capable of.”
