threadUp CIC creative community survey
We are threadUp CIC (Community Interest Company), a Manchester based not for profit organisation with a mission to support and improve the mental health & wellbeing of every creative & artist we can reach.
 
Our founder Rafaela Nunes has been supporting creatives & artists in her counselling practice since 2018, and found that when visiting non permanent cultural structures such as festivals/fringes/creative events, the levels of stress experienced by a great number of those working in these structures rocketed.
 
It was then that the idea of extending her one-on-one mental health & wellbeing support of creatives expanded to become the service ‘threadUp pitchUp’ a mental health & wellbeing hub based in these non permanent structures (as they happen), providing therapeutic support to all of those involved with delivering them in any capacity. 

This survey is crucial for us to better understand the needs of the creative community and to provide us with evidence to persuade potential funders to support this project. With this funding we can provide a free or subsidised service for service users when their need is high. 
 
This survey is anonymous and any information you provide will be used confidentially in reports to be presented to potential funders.
