I'm a business in Rotherham - how can I get involved?

In 2025, Rotherham will become the world's first Children's Capital of Culture, and we will celebrate with a 365-day festival of art, culture, and creativity designed by 0-to-25 year olds.

It will showcase Rotherham like never before, helping to boost the local economy, encourage investment and create opportunities. It will also result in a more skilled workforce for the future due to the life-changing training and opportunities it will provide, helping to improve the life chances of young people across the borough.

We want businesses like yours to help us raise awareness of this exciting borough-wide initiative, and make Rotherham a place we're all proud to call home.

Watch our video to see how other businesses have benefitted from supporting Children's Capital of Culture, and to find out more about how we have already provided over 55 young people aged 16-to-25 with paid traineeships at some of our borough's leading creative and cultural organisations. They organised nine large-scale events that took place at sites across Rotherham, helping to develop their skills, experience, and career aspirations, whilst providing thousands of other young people with an opportunity to explore their own creative potential.

Creativity is essential for all businesses across all sectors, and we would love you to join the more than 100 businesses and organisations who have already signed up to get involved.
