Cornwall Council wants to hear from people working in Cornwall’s creative industries

The Creative Census is now live

Organisations and individuals working in all sectors of the creative industries are being asked to take part in short online survey.

Each year Cornwall Council carries out its Creative Census (Niveryans Awenek) to find out how many people are working in creative industries, which include advertising, architecture, arts and culture, crafts, design, fashion, software, games, music, publishing, TV and film.

Data from the 2024 Creative Census revealed that 10,870 individuals are employed in creative-related occupations across Cornwall. 60% of respondents were sole traders or freelancers.

The data also showed that there are many well-established creative and cultural businesses in Cornwall with 47% saying they had been trading for 11 years of more.
