What people say about us

I can’t imagine how my work and project would have grown without the support from Creative Kernow. Much of this was funding but even more importantly it was the feeling that you were cared for, connected to others. There was always someone, with vast knowledge of the sector in Cornwall and beyond, to talk to about your ideas and how to realise them.

The small grant awarded to us was invaluable. It makes us, and the work feel truly recognised and valued. It also gives us confidence to write more grants. We could not have done it without face-to-face meetings with you. Thank you again.

Community Group Hayle

It’s great to have affordable and high-quality theatre on your doorstep – thank you for making this happen.

Carn to Cove Audience Member

We moved into Krowji in 2011 and the competitive rates, the flexibility and the location were all absolutely key deciding factors for us. Our clients really like the quirkiness, heritage and architecture which are all great conversation starters. The place couldn’t be further removed from other bland, soulless, sterile office environments and our business is continually growing in exciting ways as a result.
