Being awarded Large Visitor Attraction of the Year and gaining a Silver Arts & Culture Award comes as a huge boost to the entire team at Harewood, and asserts support from our loyal Members, visitors and funders. As an independent charity, Harewood is reliant upon this income to continue its important work inspiring creativity and enriching lives for its local Yorkshire communities and beyond. Like so many attractions, the loss of revenue this year has had a devastating impact upon the charity’s finances. This award follows recent generous funding from the Government Cultural Recovery Fund, Arts Council England, National Lottery Heritage Fund, ArtFund and Historic England, and winning an Innovation award for last year’s Christmas season at the 2020 Museums + Heritage Awards.
