Creative Lives in Bradford

Supporting local creativity in partnership with Bradford 2025

Creative Lives worked with Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture to support and map community creativity in Bradford.

As part of this project, we administered £400 micro-awards for local groups to organise creative activities that engage their community. The funding was for community-led groups in the Bradford district, and aimed to encourage unexpected and inspiring creative activities.

See below for details of the groups we funded.
