Artswork is the national voice celebrating the arts, creativity and cultural development for, with and by young people. They work with:

  • schools to increase arts and cultural education, providing support to teachers.
  • the arts and cultural sectors, to increase engagement with children and young people.
  • children and young people, to support, develop and deliver projects that help them to discover passions, talents and careers.
  • youth justice, using the arts and culture to engage young people who have become disengaged with traditional schooling and education.
  • employers in the creative and cultural sector on employability projects and apprenticeships.

Programmes include professional development for artists working in youth arts practice. A number of self-guided online courses are available at low rates in child protection and safeguarding, equality and diversity, and safeguarding young people and adults at risk.
