Dance Mapping - Arts Council England

There were other capital projects, such as the Lowry in Salford and Northern Stage in
Newcastle, where lottery investment, not counted above, has led to dance becoming an
significant part of their programme. The range and number of these has not been analysed as
part of this research, but it is possible to argue that this has been of benefit to the dance field
through the increased number of venues now promoting dance.
Capital funding is typically divided into two different figures:
1. Total hard amount
2. Total project costs
These are defined as follows:
1. Total hard award amount column – this is the total of all capital awards from which this
asset has benefited. It may not be entirely accurate as in some cases an organisation may
have been given an upward variation (supplementary) since October 2008 when this
spreadsheet was produced.
2. Total project cost column – this may also not be entirely accurate. The total project cost
field on the Arena asset record is reliant on officers keeping it up to date when significant
changes occur – but given that changes in costs are quite common in capital projects, this
updating doesn't get done as often as it might.
