We’re working with Cumbria Careers Hub for their Cumbria Careers Day on 6th March 2024. Here’s our 5th #DidYouKnow..
#DidYouKnow that Highlights works with many professional Northern based Artists and Companies from the UK’s cultural sector? We also work with touring national and international artists and companies.
The UK’s creative industries are world leading and offer significant and varied employment opportunities for young people. They build on a range of enjoyable skills including literacy, visual expression, technical skills, and imagination. They also incorporate industries as varied as architecture, gaming and IT, marketing, film and television, libraries and museums and more. In 2018, the Creative Industries grew more than twice the rate of all other industries in the UK and accounted for more than 6% of all employment. They are highly future proof, using uniquely human skills. UK creative industries generate more than £100bn a year to the UK economy and employ more than 2m people.
