Liverpool 2008 provided the environment for the movement in culture and health to grow. This report on the work achieved during the year shows that: culture has a role to play wherever people live or work; new and sustained partnerships with cultural and arts organisations are essential for success and for the regeneration and well-being of the city; high aspirations are achievable, and that fun and enjoyment are an expected part of this process.
