What a crazy year it’s been! The arts and hospitality industry has suffered the most, and with comments like “musicians and others in [the] arts should retrain and find other jobs” from Sunak, it hasn’t been the most hopefull place to work in. But us creative folk don’t listen to this kind of bs political swipe at one of the the most essential industries! Not only does it make over £10billion for the UK economy, it gives a much needed escape, release, outlet and inspiration in these difficult times.
So let’s finish this year on a high with some creative opportunities to get us through December. Good luck…
