As part of our ongoing #BreakTheGlass campaign, we asked people to tell us who helped them break into creative work. And social media erupted into hundreds of heartwarming awards speeches!
Today is the launch of our first ever big push to expand our Network! From today you’ll see people across the creative sector sharing their breakthrough stories.
As part of our Breakthrough campaign we are excited to platform five artists from our Young Community. Our young people's ambitions ground everything we do so we wanted them to be at the heart of our first big campaign.
