Crafts Council
We are the national charity for craft. We inspire making, empower learning, and nurture businesses. We believe that craft skills and knowledge enrich and uplift us as individuals and in doing so will change our world for the better. Established by Royal Charter in 1971, we are funded by Arts Council England as well as through fund raising and earned income activities. Society has faced unprecedented challenges in recent times and craft has shown its value; from the many volunteers making scrubs for the NHS through to the rise in craft making at home during lockdown. Yet many craft businesses have suffered a drastic loss of income and need our support. Our goal is to be an impactful organisation that can: • champion craft and its positive impact on society • increase levels of craft education at all ages • grow the market for craft With our new public space for craft recently opened and our fiftieth anniversary to celebrate, there’s never been a more exciting time to work at the Crafts Council.
