We've had a couple of emails asking about what's happening with #CreativeNorth. Unfortunately nothing's changed since our postponement announcement in April.
If you missed that announcement, you can find it here:

#CopywritersUnite you KNOW the nightmare of salary inequality in our industry (along lines of gender, race, age, class...)
Sign the thing, do some good ❤️
On #EqualPayDay we’re calling on employers to stop asking for salary history when recruiting as it perpetuates inequality. Where the practice has been banned research shows the residual gender pay gap closes. Employers can sign the #EndSalaryHistorypledge: endsalaryhistory.co.uk/
Hi! Any female POC copywriters willing to mentor a junior? 🥺 Please comment, retweet, DM, send a pigeon, anything. It's rough out here lol (but not really 'lol' plz help)
Still no concrete update for #CreativeNorth returning, but we do have a question to ask you all.
When will you feel safe and comfortable attending an in-person conference?
Two years ago today, the lovely @STEcopywriting became the first person to buy a ticket for Manchester's first ever copywriting conference.
Seems like yesterday. And also like a different lifetime.
I know times are tight, but if anyone has a few quid to spare for a good cause, let @EcclesRFC have your donation. A proper community club, and a real asset to people in Salford.
Plus you can nab a fishing rod on the cheap if you're quick:

Manc Fact 21: Manchester has its own marketin’ conference called #CreativeNorth. It’s run by these geezers from a copywritin’ agency that sounds like a firm of accountants. Apparently the buffet’s top notch though.

It's a great initiative for a great cause. And it's the only place you can find our virtual conference, donated for free to raise money for @samaritans
We were hoping today would be the rescheduled #CreativeNorth conference. Instead everything's locking down again.
Things are tough for businesses in Manchester, but the guys at HNW have put together a post that might inspire you: wordsthatwinbusiness.com/the…
I ♥️ seeing the World Mental Health Day posts at the moment. People contributing to awareness. But major kudos to @Giles_Edwards for creating @IsolatedTalks during lockdown & pouring into it every week for @samaritans 🙏🏻
I'm looking for recommendations for a copywriter and also a lead gen specialist with experience in the personal development sector for a freelance project. Please RT & tweet me with suggestions :)
Francesca spoke @_CreativeNorth. I consider myself to be someone who pays attention to the world, but she made me sit the fuck up. (And we had a good chat about pop punk after ✨) If you're a white human moving, working and living in digital spaces, put this on your reading list.
