Ideas Foundation in the Northwest

The Ideas Foundation began working in the Northwest in 2007. With the help of its Northwest Champion McCann Erickson and the Comino Foundation, it has established itself as the foremost creative industries educational organisation in the region.

Ideas Foundation Creativity Scholars have achieved some of the highest art & design GCSE grades in the country, obtained jobs in the industry and worked on live creative briefs for real clients.

"The super designs for the flyers and the popcorn holders have wowed people both inside and outside the gallery and beat Mintsource's previous event attendance record!"

Sally Olding, Programme Manager, Mintsource, Whitworth Gallery
