Mr Dowden MP said: “I am delighted that the Radlett Centre in my Hertsmere constituency are receiving this government funding.
“I have enjoyed many performances here from pantomime at Christmas to the Radlett Light Operatic Society. They have a fantastic cafe downstairs, Teatro, and really are at the heart of our community.
“This government has said that we are here for arts and this funding will protect special places, like the Radlett Centre in my constituency, save jobs and help the culture sector’s recovery.”
