Throughout the year we publish briefs on the cultural, economic, political, and technological research and policy changes that may affect makers and the craft sector.
Any changes to policies that we perceive to have immediate or long-term implications for the craft sector we record, share in our quarterly newsletter and make a formal response. The latest brief can be found on this page.
