A council spokesperson said: “Our Cultural Life programme transformed into Cultural Lounge by going online on April 6. We are presenting a diverse digital programme of arts, heritage, craft and more, all of which can be enjoyed live and online from your home. Stay at home with us and enjoy the many qualities and benefits of culture, so vital for our wellbeing during this challenging time.

“We will deliver a weekly programme offering something for all ages to enjoy, all available from our Facebook pages and YouTube channels. Young and old can access a variety of activity, art forms and cultural offerings which will inform, entertain and educate bringing light relief into our lives. As our programme develops we want to hear from you about what we can include in this offer.
