Kirklees Local Television was proud to attend and take part in 'The Value of Culture', the Culture Collective’s end-of-year event, held on 5 December 2025 at the grassroots music venue AMPED in Huddersfield.

The venue was alive with conversation and creative energy as artists, cultural organisations, innovative practitioners and academics from across the borough came together for an afternoon focused on the importance, impact and future of culture in Kirklees.

The event provided a clear and compelling reflection of the Culture Collective’s core mission: to represent, support, and advocate for the cultural sector at both local and strategic levels.
