Cultural Co-ordinator Programme

The 2007-09 Cultural Co-ordinator Programme is funded by the Scottish Government and managed by the Scottish Arts Council. It is a second, enhanced phase of the Cultural Co-ordinators in Scottish schools initiative which was established to offer opportunities for young people (both within and out with school hours) to see and take part in a broad range of cultural experiences including the performing and creative arts, literature, heritage, moving image and architecture.
Who are we?
Scottish Borders Council has a team of three Cultural Co-ordinators.
Cultural Co-ordinator Manager - Lisa Denham
As manager of the Cultural Co-ordinator team Lisa will be building key strategic networks and partnership working, and will
liaise closely with the Scottish Arts Council to monitor and evaluate the programme.

Cultural Co-ordinator (Outreach) - Susanne Batchelor
The outreach programme aims to increase and enhance opportunities for children and young people to participate in a wide range
of cultural activities. Susanne will work closely with local theatres, museums/galleries, libraries, and archives to help
build and develop education and outreach programmes. Susanne will also liaise between the national companies and schools to
ensure that opportunities to participate in education and outreach activities are maximised.
