Meet Laura Richards

What I do…

I run a design agency with a difference, we invest profits to fund arts education to encourage young people into the creative industry. Our client projects across brand, illllustration and web help fund our vital work, working with client globally, nationally and locally.

Growing up I wanted to become…

I actually wanted to be a prison officer, I had no idea the creative industry was a think and didn’t know how to use my creative skills for a career.

The best advice anyone ever game me…

Be nice to everyone you meet on the way up, because you might need them on your way down. This for me, fits into my ethos of treat people how you want to be treated.
