Creative Opps gives young people access to the tools, networks, and experience that they need to create positive changes for themselves and their communities. Please check out current programmes below, and explore the site for information on our previous programmes. Find out more about us here.
With our friends at Box to Box Films, we provide paid work placements for young people whose backgrounds and lived experiences are typically underrepresented in the film industry.
We believe that diversity in the workplace is essential if we are to pave the way for new stories to be told.
Mentors offer one-to-one career guidance and knowledge sharing, as well as providing other useful opportunities for a mentee to take the next steps towards their goals. Please check out our mentoring page.
