Welcome to Creative Briefs

We are a Community Interest Company dedicated to supporting all children through design-based projects, with a special focus on those with dyslexia and other learning differences.

Our inclusive art and design workshops help children across the UK explore their creative potential and career opportunities. Our team of professional designers and tutors deliver hands-on projects that nurture creativity, confidence, and practical skills.

We particularly focus on helping children with learning differences 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. These qualifications provide an accessible way for children to gain recognised qualifications and develop essential skills in leadership and communication.

Support Our Work

  • "Whilst dyslexia is a focus of Creative Briefs' work, it would be remiss to assume that only children with dyslexia 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”
