As a network we aim to promote opportunities, encourage partnerships, and provide regular insight and analysis – we are a community that share ideas and undertake conversations.

Alongside holding bi-annual networking events and opportunities, Craft UK has regular digital catch ups ensuring that we are discussing issues as they arise. Craft UK also facilitates focus groups to encourage learning and experience sharing within the network on specific topics of interest to the network.

If you are interested in joining the Craft UK network, please email Amelia Lawrence, sector support manager.

“As a member of Craft UK, Applied Arts Scotland gains a broader perspective of activity, opportunity, best practice and leadership in the craft sector and making community across UK”
- Helen Voce, Advisor at Applied Arts Scotland

'Bluecoat Display Centre are delighted to be a member of the Craft UK network which we’ve found a really useful way of meeting and connecting with other craft based organisations from across the country. I’ve appreciated the way network meetings have been scheduled to link in with key events like the British Ceramics Biennial and Collect as well as the pertinent themes and focus of the discussions. I feel sure that the Craft UK network will become increasingly relevant over the coming months as our sector starts to recover and rebuild from the affects of the coronavirus.' Samantha Rhodes, Director at Bluecoat Display Centre in Liverpool
