## Notice

The Arts Council wish to commission an external programme-level evaluation of the Transforming Leadership Fund to assess the impact of the fund. The Fund aims to support and test a range of approaches to ensuring arts and cultural leaders are appropriately skilled and from diverse backgrounds.
