Join us on Friday 22 March for our upcoming Series of Care workshop: Creative Confidence Coaching, led by consultant, educator and creative coach, Auriel Majumdar. This workshop is designed to give you the space to define your personal goals around confidence within your creative practice, while also setting tangible plans to navigate towards realising these aspirations.
Throughout the session, Auriel will guide you in uncovering your unique strengths and areas for growth, enabling you to plot a roadmap for meaningful progress.
We know how hard it can be to get started with implementing your goal plan, so this workshop includes a dedicated follow-up coaching session with author, speaker, and coach, Eleanor Snare. This additional support will help ensure that you stay motivated and equipped with the tools needed to sustain momentum towards your creative ambitions.

1-2-1 follow-up coaching session
Have you ever set well meaning goals and struggled to get the ball rolling with implementing them? We’ve all been there! It might be that you’ve struggled to carve out the time, faced some kind of barriers, or simply not made them your priority. It happens to the best of us – life happens.
We therefore felt it was important to include a follow-up coaching session as part of this mini-programme to help you keep yourself accountable to yourself, acknowledge the roadblocks, work out solutions, and keep going!
Who is this workshop for?
Our Creative Confidence Coaching mini-programme is for all artists and creatives living, working, or making work in Bradford.
With Bradford 2025 just around the corner, there are more and more creative opportunities cropping up – and we want to ensure that you have the confidence to seize these moments.
We can all have jolts of self-doubt, insecurity, imposter syndrome or low self-esteem and we want to help you overcome these doubts and help you to realise your creative ambitions.
How much does it cost?
This workshop is completely free to you and is fully funded by Bradford Producing Hub. We can even provide bursaries and cover access costs to help reduce any barriers to attending if you need it. See below for more information.

Meet the coaches
Auriel Majumdar, Group Coach
She/her
“I believe that creativity is the energy that powers our lives, and I love working in creative ways, with creative people and I passionately believe in supporting people to make meaningful choices for themselves. I believe in mistakes and mess and lives fully lived not perfectly lived. I believe in stories and poetry and mystery. As I work, I feel myself surrounded and uplifted by my communities of practice – of artists, audiences, coaches, coachees, both past and present. I feel privileged to be able to share my knowledge, experience, and opinion with people in many ways. I write and speak publicly about the topics that interest me and it is my great joy to be visible and have a voice in the world.”
Eleanor Snare, 1-2-1 Coach

Bursaries, access and travel costs
As with all our development programmes, we have bursaries and access funds available to make these opportunities as accessible to as many people as possible. You will be asked about your financial support requirements upon offer of a place on the course.
Bursaries: a contribution towards your time to enable you to attend when you may otherwise be working. You can claim up to £50 for this half-day session.
Access costs: additional costs you may have to enable you to attend; things like disability support, BSL interpretation, translation, or childcare.
Travel costs: the cost of travel to our events ideally using public transport. If you need to take a taxi, please get in touch with us to let us know as we’ll need to approve this in advance.
We do not means-test or ask you to prove that you need this financial support, but where possible we need to agree in advance on what costs we will cover, and you will need to provide receipts to claim costs back from us. Please only apply for these if you need to, as this will ensure we can provide funds to those who really need them.
