Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden said on Monday that the Government’s £1.57 billion bailout of the culture sector will begin with ‘crown jewels’ such as the Royal Albert Hall.

The Government announced a package of support on Sunday for ‘museums, galleries, theatres, independent cinemas, heritage sites and music venues’ in the form of grants and loans.
