About Discover! Creative Careers
Discover! Creative Careers is a national programme supporting young people aged 11–24 to explore careers in the creative industries.
Funded by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and delivered by the Creative Careers Collective, the programme brings together Futures For All, Creative UK and Creative Access to provide careers support, industry engagement and opportunities for young people across the UK.
DCC aims to break down barriers to entering the creative industries, with a particular focus on young people from under-represented backgrounds and underserved regions. Through careers information, industry experiences and opportunities to develop skills and knowledge, the programme helps young people discover the many different pathways into the UK’s cultural and creative sector.
