Many thanks to everyone who voted for our Creating Your Future 2015 project. I’m delighted to say that we were successful in obtaining an award from the Royal Bank of Scotland Skills and Opportunities Fund. NatWest Bank, part of RBS, have volunteered their practical support as which is invaluable and we are very grateful to them and our other volunteers. This is enabling another cohort of unemployed adults to develop the creative thinking skills needed in the current workplace, to use these skills to work out what career they want to pursue and to take the necessary steps to make this a reality. Thanks to your support it’s really helping turn people’s lives around!

Creative Scotland came into being in July 2010, created as a Non Departmental Public Body to replace and develop the functions of the former Scottish Arts Council and Scottish Screen. It is widely recognised as a model of public sector reform and is housed in a dynamic new resource base for the cultural sector in Scotland (Waverley Gate in Edinburgh) with offices in Glasgow.
