In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular both the promotion and advancement of the visual arts and the advancement of education in the arts and crafts.
Achievements and performance
The Programme – Delivering art for Keighley
2024/2025 was a year of expansion in our arts delivery. We were able to offer a variety of arts provision across the age spectrum and to a variety of communities. And we’ve listened to the local community, ensuring our arts offer is both relevant and accessible.
Art & Heritage Community Programme
Growing from a standing start we have reached all areas of Keighley through a series of workshops in Bracken Bank, Long Lee, and Highfield, as well as several outdoor events run with the ‘K-Town Cart’.
Arts for Brain Health
Our Creative Health programme continues to grow. There are now four strands, with the existing Monday Creative and Wednesday Creative groups joined by the Artist in Residence programme at Airedale Mental Health Unit and our Young Creatives programme for 12–16-year-olds.
We have also seen the addition of an ecotherapy strand through the Bradford 2025 Social Prescribing Award , made in partnership Broughton Sanctuary and the National Trust.
Film and Performance
Keighley Creative’s Screen Strategy is Keighley-centric and gives emphasis to community provision.
Programming at our bijou Stockroom Cinema includes the Leeds Young Film Festival and Leeds International Film Festival , hosted in close liaison with the Keighley Picture House. Community groups continue to be encouraged to use the cinema for their own screenings, and Keighley Creative successfully showcases films about our own projects. The cinema has also been used as a live performance venue for spoken word performances.
Key to our Screen Strategy is our collaboration with The Unit . We host this filmmakers’ collective with support from Bradford Council, Channel 4, and Screen Yorkshire. Partnership with The Unit has deepened and strengthened as we enter our third year together.
Jordon Scott Kennedy, The Unit
"Being part of Keighley Creative means being surrounded by a community that genuinely values creativity, collaboration, and local culture. At The Unit, we thrive on the energy and diversity that Keighley Creative brings - it is a space where ideas are shared, projects come to life, and artists and makers support one another. It is inspiring to be part of something that champions grassroots creativity while making a real impact in Keighley and beyond. It’s the perfect environment for us to grow our own community of filmmakers with an inclusive ethos."

Achievements and performance continued
Art Workshops
Keighley Creative run free art workshops, in the town and at our base. These have included the St George's Day Workshop, Eid on the Green, the 100 Years of Keighley Cenotaph commemoration, and the Festive Arts & Crafts Workshop.
We have also begun our Big Crafty Doo-Dah workshops focused on families experiencing holiday hunger and which will run throughout 2025.
Nature Conservancy, Science through Art
Keighley Creative has an artistic approach to encouraging people to learn about and engage with their natural environment. Central to this has been our Primary School project, Pledges to the Landscape , and the ACE Bogs – Bog in a Drawing Box scheme.
Work has progressed with Blues and Greens , our Bradford 2025 Social Prescribing Award that connects local people with natural spaces including one of the UK’s most ambitious rewilding programmes at Broughton Estate.
We have also collaborated with local manufacturer, Byworth Boilers in our Engineering and Arts Exploration , which uses art to promote the understanding of engineering.
Art Courses
Keighley Creative hosts popular paid for art courses, including Portrait Painting , Life Drawing and Painting Your Passions with Watercolour .
Bradford 2025
We work to ensure Keighley is well represented in the Bradford 2025 Programme. We were central to the BD25 Keighley Launch , launched the Keighley Sculpture Trail, Rombald’s Rocks at the end of May, and are busy planning for our Mega Drawing Box event at The Beacon in August.
Artist Studios
One of Keighley Creative’s primary purposes is to foster the local artistic community. A core method of doing this is by providing low-cost studio space to a group of local artists. Our studios during 2024/2025 were full and hummed with activity, with a range of artists from differing backgrounds and ages working in a variety of mediums
Keighley Creative supported its artists in several ways:
-
l Exhibition Programme: Giving the local community an opportunity to view our artists’ work through a series of carefully curated exhibitions at Keighley Creative.
-
l Pop-up Shop: Giving space and payment support for our artists to sell their artwork to the local community.
-
l Art Critiques: Running a programme of critical support events where artists can receive constructive feedback and guidance on ongoing pieces of work.
-
l Art Commissions: Keighley Creative notifies our artists of any appropriate artistic commissions. We also offer commissions ourselves, and although this is done through an open call, we have often found that Keighley based artists are best suited to filling our creative brief.
We believe there is much more Keighley Creative can do to support our artists and the wider Keighley artistic community. We have now developed a plan with The Artery , a Skipton based artist development programme to provide our artists with the support they need to become economically viable independent artists, able to support themselves through their art practice.
Our Artist Development Programme therefore has two projected outcomes:
-
l Building a community of artists with the business skills and confidence to become economically viable independent artists.
-
l Improving local business activity through the provision of creative solutions to business challenges.

Keighley Creative 2024/25 – Building the Team
In September 2023, Keighley Creative produced a Development Plan to map our progress through to 2026. Key to this was an expansion of the Keighley Creative core staff team.
Before the end of 2023/2024, Keighley Creative was reduced to a single member of staff. During this period, the Board of Trustees stepped in to help steer the organisation forward. Grant funding was successfully found to increase staff numbers. This included the Towns Fund revenue grant, and the Community Development grant obtained in partnership with Kala Sangam.
As a result, Keighley Creative was able to appoint an Arts & Heritage Officer in April 2024, an Executive Director in June 2024 (both employed by Kala Sangam and then seconded full-time to Keighley Creative) a Creative Director in August 2024 and an Events Producer in November 2024. The existing Events Manager post was upgraded to Events & Operations Manager in April 2025 to reflect the greater delivery responsibilities of the expanded team.
The capacity of Keighley Creative has received a huge boost because of these appointments. In line with the 2023 Development Plan, the current core team profile now represents the minimum staffing level necessary for an organisation of Keighley Creative’s scope and ambitions.
It is worth noting that because of the staggered nature of the appointments during 2024/2025, staffing levels of the core team ran at 89% of the optimum. Despite this, the bedding in of the new team has seen substantial success in increasing Keighley Creative’s outputs during 2024/2025.
Since November, Keighley Creative’s staff have meshed into an effective team. A collaborative and collegiate approach results in a core team that produces outputs far greater than the sum of its individual parts. Although individual duties and responsibilities are clearly defined, all staff members are committed to working together and are prepared to lend a hand to all aspects of Keighley Creative work.
Riaz Meer, Executive Director
“Steering the strategic direction of Keighley Creative is an amazing opportunity. There is so much potential in the town, and it is my job to see Keighley Creative tap into it. The team at Keighley Creative have mobilised themselves to serve the artistic needs of the community. Feedback has been amazing. These are exciting times for the organisation.”
Paula Clark, Creative Director
“It is a privilege to be a part of Keighley Creative and to work with the team to develop an inclusive programme that responds to the needs of the people of Keighley. We want people of all ages and backgrounds to be able to come together and feel like they belong. I believe in the power of access to the arts and creativity in improving the lives and well-being of people and communities. That is what Keighley Creative is all about.”
Lauren Kelly, Arts & Heritage Officer
“I feel very lucky to be part of Keighley Creative. I get to do the kind of work I've always wanted to do, which is to be creative and community focused. I get to work with amazing people, and it feels very rewarding to be able to give back to the town I care about so much!”
Cathryn Murray, Events & Operations Manager
“I joined Keighley Creative as an entry level events coordinator. In the past three years my professional development has come on leaps and bounds. Keighley Creative has been pivotal for my career development. Working so closely with the community has helped me to learn about the importance of consulting with residents and communities about what they want for their local area. I have also learned how working closely with other organisations in your local area can have a huge impact for towns.”
Tracy Uren, Events Producer
“Our events encourage people to get out more, interact with others and improve social cohesion within the town. Keighley Creative brings joy to the local people and a welcome burst of energy to the town centre. As a Keighley girl, I am proud to work with such a passionate and dedicated team of individuals.”

Keighley Creative 2024/25 – Building the Team continued
Freelance staff play a vital role in Keighley Creative’s delivery. In 2024/2025, Keighley Creative provided 300 days of paid work to artists, creatives, and facilitators in the production of our events and activities. Employment opportunities in project delivery have seen an eighty six percent rise from the previous year. In addition to this, Keighley Creative provided 142 days of paid work for other essential activities. Keighley Creative plays a significant role in providing work opportunities and skills development in the heart of Keighley.
Naseem Darbey, Freelance Artist
“Keighley Creative sustains creative professionals, new and established, and all their projects are community facing, striving to make a real difference. I love working for Keighley Creative. They are building something great.”
Volunteers have been the bedrock of Keighley Creative since its inception as an artists’ collective and then Community Interest Company in 2018, and its granting of charitable status in 2020. Two of the current staff team began as volunteers for the charity. The new team at Keighley Creative have been working on the volunteer experience, seeking ways to give at least as much back to volunteers as they provide to the organisation. At the heart of our volunteering is the Board of Trustees. Our Trustees provide Keighley Creative with a range of skills, from finance to youth justice, journalism to human resources. Our delivery teams also depend on a pool of volunteers who provide artistic and community support without which project delivery would be impossible.
Bob Smith, Trustee
“Keighley Creative is a real asset to my hometown. Having a vibrant hub for the arts is a great way of reinvigorating our town centre. Supporting local creative people from all sectors of the arts is vital to the economic wellbeing of the area.”
Jon Britten, Community Volunteer
“I volunteer for Keighley Creative because I truly believe in what it stands for, reaching out & bringing the community together through creativity. I saw the vision of what it could & will become and I try to take an active role in helping it grow.”
Financial review
The net income for the year was £85,239, including net income of £9,878 on unrestricted funds and net income of £75,361 on restricted funds after transfers.
Reserves policy
The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £67,801.
The minimum reserves required (reviewed annually) to fund unplanned closure is £20,150.
The charity is currently supporting East Street Arts in a major grant funded project to renovate and refurbish the old Sunwin House building in the town centre. The building will be owned by East Street Arts and is due to open in Spring 2026 with Keighley Creative being the anchor tenant. This is a very exciting opportunity to develop our arts space in the town, but will carry additional cost. The charity also faces other financial pressures in 2026/2027, mainly the fallout of grant funding. The level of reserves being carried forward are therefore earmarked to assist in funding the associated costs of the development and the forecast financial challenges in 2026/2027.
Approved by the board of trustees on 21/10/2025
