“Created in partnership with Creative Access following a successful first year, the programme offers participants direct mentorship, industry knowledge and practical career development between September 2026 and March 2027,” reports New Wave Magazine.
New Wave Mag adds, “The partnership with Creative Access gives the initiative significant depth. For years, the organisation has worked to improve diversity across the UK’s creative industries by helping people from communities that remain under-represented secure employment, mentoring and long-term career progression. Its expertise in building equitable recruitment and development programmes complements Maya’s public platform, allowing the initiative to combine industry credibility with genuine structural support.”
