A Question of Sport: An Inquiry into the cultural value of sport to the North.

Our Question of Sport Inquiry makes the inextricable connection between sport and culture and sets out the cultural value that sport contributes to the North - its people and places. Sport generates huge dividends for the North’s economy and society as a whole and is the glue that bonds our social fabric together.

The findings and recommendations of our Question of Sport Inquiry make a compelling case for investment in sport and culture in the North. If we are serious about tackling prevailing disadvantages and inequalities in our communities we need to generate greater cultural value and opportunities. It is time to build a talent pipeline and develop the sporting and cultural infrastructure in all parts of the North.
