Culture Minister Caroline Dinenage visited Dudley Canal and River Trust

The Dudley Canal and Tunnel Trust received £154,900 in funding from the Government’s Culture Recovery Fund for Heritage.

Culture Minister Caroline Dinenage said: "I was delighted to visit both the charming Hartlebury Castle and fascinating Dudley Canal and River Trust site as they begin to welcome visitors to their full range of brilliant attractions from today.

"Our record-breaking Culture Recovery Fund has helped both organisations enormously through the challenges of the past year and it's wonderful to see them back open.

"We've provided unprecedented support to our arts, culture and heritage sites across the country and now I encourage everyone to get back out there and enjoy all that they have to offer."
