Today, we've launched the Creative UK Manifesto, delineating why radical, new action is needed across the Cultural and #CreativeIndustries. Be part of the change. Support our Manifesto & sign Land of Hope and Story's open letter now: manifesto.wearecreative.uk #OurCreativeFuture
Today’s listening so I can convince myself I won’t die from the Baltic train air con… new low? Absolutely.
Today’s travels took me to @UniWestLondon- great to discuss the role we all need to play in nurturing creativity from an early age, especially where access is challenging. Thanks for your time @sararaybould1 and team!
So what’s new? New job. Moved to Bristol. Am travelling up and down the UK meeting inspiring leaders in creative education. Gone up a waist line from 1 too many bougie lunches. Living the dream 😌

Love seeing Ed Burke’s painting hanging pride of place in the freshly launched Lighthouse for @falwriting edburkes.com
Fantastic evening launching the Lighthouse @falwriting. Discussed fulfilment and despair with colleagues and the incomparable @HelenLederer...now my head hurts, but that may have been the wine 🥂
People often ask me, “Chris where do you get your style”... Turns out for this weekend’s wedding it was Supreme Court President Lady Hale...🐞
To coincide with #ALevelResults2019 we've written an open letter to @GavinWilliamson Over 150 key figures from across the creative industries & beyond have signed the letter urging government to recognise the value of #CreativeEducation. Read the letter: creativeindustriesfederation.com/news/open-lett…
It’s great to see research staff and students commiting to student-led enhancement in order to nurture a sense of community in their new space.
