An insightful and inspiring day at Envision – Youth Leadership in the Arts Conference – as part of Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture for the team this Feb.
Our Co-Directors Archie O’Neill and Daniel Cartlidge spoke their journeys with Creative Youth over the past five years and how organisations can support young people at every stage of involvement.
Our Young Creative Thea Melton also spoke about youth leadership and the importance of giving genuine, meaningful roles to young people in supportive environments so they can thrive and make real change.

Really enjoyed meeting so many wonderful young creative people and organisations, hearing about the initiatives that have been part of Bradford 2025, and the thought-provoking keynote from Ned Glasier.
Many actions to take away and build on both within the cultural industries and beyond as we try to build a future that is better connected and where young people are empowered to make the changes they want to see.
