This includes the provision of arts projects for the community. Nature of support: In 1981 Minority Arts Programme Trustees declined to support a community photography project due to uncertain local government support.

In 1983 the Minority Arts Programme recommended a grant of £200 towards the cost of amplifiers and speakers for the youth club band.
