Creative Kids Centre — A New Chapter

Since Easter, Creative Kids Centre has moved forward with fresh energy, new governance, and a collaborative way of leading. Together with local artists, educators, and families, we’re building a positive, creative home for children and young people.

So far we’ve: refreshed our programmes, grown partnerships, and set clear plans for what comes next.

What’s New

• Media Centre (in development): a space for film, audio, photography, design, and digital storytelling.
• Project 14–22: support and opportunities for young creatives to gain experience, mentoring, and routes into study and work.
• Youth Advisory Board: a new group of young creatives who help shape our direction, influence programming, and ensure that youth voice is at the heart of everything we do.
• Drawing & Talking Therapies: expanded 1:1 and small-group creative wellbeing support.
• Home Education: two creative learning days each week from the week after half term.

What We’re About

• Open, welcoming spaces that spark imagination and build confidence.
• Accessible programmes with clear pathways, including Arts Award qualifications.
• Young people shaping what we do through voice, choice, and collaboration.

“This is the first time the kids have been anywhere like this — there’s nowhere else like it! Great staff, great activities, GREAT IDEA!”
