CULT Cymru for Musicans in Wales

What is CULT Cymru and how it works

CULT Cymru is a learning project (Creative Unions Learning Together) led by BECTU in partnership with Equity, the Musicians’ Union, the Writers’ Guild and the Wales TUC. 

CULT Cymru works with industry workers, employers and other organisations to arrange learning activities and networking events for creatives, including musicians, throughout Wales. The MU's Regional Office for Wales and South West England is leading on this partnership.
