How Yellow Cat supports us
Since 2019, Create’s bespoke relationship with Yellow Cat supports the charity’s work in several crucial ways:
● An annual, unrestricted gift of £5,000 through the charity’s Create the Difference scheme, which enables Create to deliver creative workshops across the UK where they are needed most
● Buying tickets to Create fundraising events, such as the recent evening with Sir Antony Gormley at White Cube, and introducing guests to Create’s work
● Donating time pro bono to offer strategic fundraising advice as part of Create’s Development Council
● Helping Create launch and run its annual fundraising event, the CRE8IN8 running challenge, which has raised more than £25,000 to support Create’s work since 2020

Jonny Breeze, Founder and Director of Yellow Cat, said: “We love working with Create. Its mission fits so neatly with our aims at Yellow Cat. We care deeply about enabling everyone, from all walks of life, to explore their creativity, express themselves, share their experiences with others and develop new skills. Working with the Create team is always a pleasure: they have gone out of their way to shape a bespoke partnership that feels enriching for us as an organisation. Attending workshops and events is such a privilege, and has helped to hammer home how important and impactful Create’s work is.”
Nicky Goulder, Create’s Founding CEO, said: “We are proud of our partnership with Yellow Cat and so appreciative of the company’s ongoing support. Not only is their annual donation critical in enabling us to deliver our creative arts projects across the UK, but the pro bono support that they provide has already helped us in countless ways. The CRE8IN8 in particular simply wouldn’t exist without Jonny and Yellow Cat, and is now a thriving part of our annual fundraising schedule. I look forward to continuing this important relationship and impacting more lives through the power of creativity through this mutually-beneficial partnership.”
