How can we help?

We’re here to connect, support and inspire—helping individuals, organisations and communities thrive through creativity.  Feel free to come along to an event, join in some training or save the date for the next Conference.  Take a look at the Buckinghamshire Cultural Strategy for our wider context and strategy and as a first step, feel free to reach out for a one-to-one meeting to discuss your work, project, challenges or needs.

Here is some more information about our current sector resilience programme.

Opportunities for Networking, Inspiration and Training

  • Networking events to meet others working in creativity and culture in Bucks – two open networking events per year.

Take a look at our Sector Development Calendar to see our upcoming events:

We are open to discussions about collaborations and joint funding applications.  And we often explore new ideas and test approaches through pilot projects that address challenges and seize opportunities.  We release R&D and sector development opportunities through our Newsletter and our social media – enabling as many interested to organisations and creatives to take part as we can.
