We’re always busy at the Ideas Foundation, whether it’s with our own Projects, getting involved in supporting others in the creative industry, or working with Government. Whatever it takes to promote practical creativity. Take a look at what we’ve been up to recently, below.
On the first day of #12daysIFGreatness we are going all the way back to January this year, when we partnered with @itventrycareers to host a series of workshop in London, Leeds and Manchester. Our #ideas makers were tasked with developing a campaign to encourage their peers to take up an apprenticeship after education! The students then pitched to the professionals from ITV who loved their work! -

This week we’ve had @kjhl1 in the office on #workexperience. Here is how his week at IF HQ went! Don’t forget to swipe left ⬅️ “I’m Karamvir Johal 👋 I am an A level student and I’ve been on work experience this past week with the Ideas Foundation. I have really enjoyed my time this past week, I have learnt so much and had a great insight into the creative industry. I interacted with lots of people and spoke to them about the different paths and routes that people have taken to work in this industry, I also asked for tips. Here are 5 tips that I’ve been given by people I have met in the Sea Containers building this past week.”
