Creative Freelancer Guide

We're launching our new Freelancer Guide at the LCB Depot tonight with a panel discussion featuring a number of freelancers from different creative backgrounds (dancer, sound engineer, textile designer/maker, writer). The event has a waiting list so we'll be repeating it in Loughborough after Christmas. The guide is a 30 minute read on all the basics of effective freelancing. If you'd like a hard copy please email us, or pick one up at the LCB Depot (31 Rutland St, Leicester LE1 1RE) or you can read it online on the Information page of www.creativeleicestershire.org.uk
