Richard Holden Shows UK Music CEO the Music, Culture & Tourism in North West Durham.
It was great to see Jamie Njoku-Goodwin, Chief Executive of U.K. Music (the Trade Body of the whole U.K. music sector) to North West Durham this weekend.
Richard was keen to link him into a couple of major local projects that I support and do what I can to help in the space he leads nationally in, namely:
1.) Ushaw Historic House, Chapels & Gardens - above #LangleyPark - and their diverse plans for the future to be more self sustaining, especially in the music festival area.
2.) The Roxy Project in #Leadgate - led by David who has been spending years slowly transforming this abandoned cinema.
Jamie was really impressed by what he saw here in #NorthWestDurham - especially the local community focus of both projects. He will be a great contact in future for both and has promised to do what he can to link them in to future opportunities.
