Our Projects
Monthly Spotlight Sessions
Each month, we host a Spotlight Session where a member of our community shares their creative journey, lessons learned, and current work. These sessions provide a platform to amplify diverse voices, inspire peers, and build connections within a supportive environment. They are held online, making them accessible to creatives across the UK
Annual Mentoring Scheme
Our flagship mentoring programme runs annually, matching 10–20 early to mid-career creatives with experienced industry mentors for a six-month period. The scheme offers tailored guidance, skill development, and career support, helping mentees navigate the media landscape and overcome systemic barriers.
Annual Industrial Roundtables
Each year, we bring together professionals from underrepresented backgrounds alongside media organisations in a roundtable event to discuss equity, representation, and inclusive industry practices. This forum encourages open dialogue, shares best practices, and fosters collaborative solutions to ongoing challenges in the creative sector.
Annual Diversity Report and Campaign
Complementing our events, we publish an annual diversity report and run targeted campaigns to raise awareness about representation and inclusion in media. These initiatives aim to educate the wider industry and public, promoting accountability and positive change.
These projects are the core of Slingshot Creative’s commitment to empowering underrepresented creatives and transforming the media industry. Through community-building, mentorship, advocacy, and research, we’re working toward a more equitable and diverse creative future.
