Trade Body Network
Trade bodies hold a unique convening power within the Creative Industries and have the ear of members from a diverse range of backgrounds and work profiles. Our Network brings these bodies together, to find common cause and unite the voices within each institution to achieve strategic impact with both industry and government. The Trade Body Network guides Creative UK’s policy team in its work, to ensure the best possible conditions for the growth and success of the UK’s Creative Industries.
Membership of the Trade Body Network is by invitation only. For any enquiries, contact Stacey Arnold (Stacey.Arnold@wearecreative.uk)
