Welcome to Creative Briefs

We are a Community Interest Company dedicated to empowering neurodiverse children through inclusive design-based workshops.

Our programmes aim to unlock each child's creative potential, fostering confidence and resilience. Our team of professional designers and tutors deliver hands-on projects that nurture creativity, confidence, and practical skills.

We particularly focus on helping neurodiverse children harness their strengths, offering insights into real-world creative careers and supporting personal development.

Our programmes cater to families, community groups, schools, virtual schools, and EOTAS learners, ensuring accessibility for every child.

Arts Award Qualifications

We are a registered Arts Award Centre, meaning we can embed Arts Award into many of our services.

Arts Award qualifications are part of the Regulated Qualifications Framework. They are ideal for all creative children, but are especially beneficial for those who may feel disengaged from traditional education or struggle with exams. We integrate Arts Award units into our sessions to empower participants and celebrate their strengths, rather than as purely educational qualifications.

Children at the Heart of Everything We Do

Support Our Work

  • "Whilst neurodiversity is a focus of Creative Briefs' work, it would be remiss to assume that only neurodivergent children benefit - the opportunity to represent and share ideas in a wide-range of forms, chosen by the child, is beneficial regardless of neurodiversity. The enjoyment of all children is clear to see and the skills they have gained are deeply beneficial"

    Teacher Quote

  • “I have learnt collaboration. I have learnt to work in a group. Now when I work in groups at school I am better at listening and sharing my ideas more effectively.”

    Child Quote

  • “A wonderful experience for my daughter. She has thoroughly enjoyed the online zooms and looks forward to meeting in person over the summer”
