The Creative Census gathers evidence to support Cornwall’s Creative Manifesto.
It gathers in-depth intelligence about creative businesses in Cornwall:
- What is their contribution to Cornwall’s economy?
- Which sub-sectors are they working in?
- How can we understand opportunities for growth and the barriers preventing it?
Across the last three years, we have received 1,270 completed surveys. We are very grateful to those who took part for their time and insights. The ONS Census 2021 indicates a total of 10,870 individuals in creative related occupations in Cornwall and Isles of Scilly.
