New Deal of the Mind has become The Creative Society
Since founder and CEO Martin Bright wrote the article that kick-started our work, the concept of a New Deal of the Mind has provided a mutually rewarding service in which creative organisations and businesses have directly benefitted from the creation of over 1000 sustainable jobs for young people.
As our work has evolved however, we’ve had to evolve with it, and now need a new way to better reflect the positive outcomes that we as New Deal of the Mind have helped to shape.
We are therefore evolving our brand to become known as The Creative Society with a mission to build and support the creative economy.
Look out for changes across our social media sites – coming very soon.

Soon after signing up to the Talent to Work scheme I was given the chance to hear Ed Miliband speak at Thomson Reuters; addressing The News of the World phone hacking scandal and the fact the paper is ending after 168 years. Being there to hear the Labour leader’s response to recent events was fascinating, as was attending my first press conference and being able to talk with other members of the Talent to Work program. I am not pursuing a journalistic career, or aiming to work in politics, but as a writer I’m intensely curious about these spheres and value the opportunity to gain an insight into them. (more…)
