SHE CREATES!
In my own experience, I was invited to a producer's house who I’ve never met before to work on music instead of a professional studio. Going to a stranger’s house alone should not be the norm for young talent.

Why She Creates!
From production to the live stage, female artists will have the opportunity to create, perform and learn business skills to become the independent SME’s that they are.
We've already supported 270 women directly through our programmes and events, with 228 subscribers proving a retained warm audience for future commercial offers.
75% reported that their biggest concern was learning how to produce & 66% said they wanted to up-skill and earn from their music.
So we're building opportunities around those needs.
✔️ 65% of female music professionals report experiencing sexism.
✔️ 32% have faced active sexual harassment.
✔️ Many women have to navigate their careers in isolation.
✔️ Systemic dependency on male-dominated spaces delaying creative progress and compromising safety.
✔️ Impact has been validated by BBC Radio Manchester, recognising social cohesion and artistic excellence.
