The Re:Create programme helps artists, makers and creative enterprises to improve their business skills and confidence by offering free business support and networking opportunities. Re:Create Westminster is designed for those creative business owners based in the London Borough Westminster who have been established and trading for at least 12 months. There should be existing trading or a service being provided that the Re:Create programme can help you to sustain or grow.  Unfortunately, the programme is not aimed at or suitable for pre-start or start-up businesses.

You can find more information about Re:Create Westminster on our website.

In the following application form, we will ask for some information about your business and your current need for one-to-one business support, offered for free as part of the Re:Create Westminster programme. Throughout this form, we refer to your business but this can also mean your activity or work as a sole trader, artist or freelancer. Once you have begun filling in this application, you can, if you wish, save and return to the form to finish at another time.

Places on the programme will be decided on your indication of need for one-to-one business mentoring, your commitment to attending all 3 hours of business mentoring, and the potential for positive impact to your business from support offered through the programme. Therefore please provide as much information and evidence as you can within your application form.

Please note that, if you are not selected to be part of the programme cohort to receive 3 hours of free one-to-one business mentoring sessions, you'll still be able to access our accompanying Re:Create Business Skills e-learning course for free and join our networking events.


The deadline to complete and submit your application is 5pm, 13 December 2024.

We will be notifying every applicant of the outcome of their application before the end of December 2024. Each selected participant will receive 3 hours of free tailored one-to-one mentoring sessions with an expert creative industry mentor which will run through January and February 2025.

All those that complete an application will also be sent a free access code to the Re:Create Business Skills E-learning course within 5 working days.
