The second round of the Creative Skills Fund is closed

The Creative Skills Fund is a key part of our mission to grow a stronger, more inclusive creative workforce in Wales. Backed by the 10 priorities set out in the  Creative Skills Action Plan (2022–2026).

Now in it's second round, this fund supports projects that help people gain the skills they need to thrive in the creative industries—from music and screen to games, animation, and immersive tech.

Across both rounds of the Creative Skills Fund, 34 projects have been funded, with £3 million investment, and supporting 27,000 individuals to date.
