Black History Month at ERIC⚡️

October is Black History Month (as many of you will already know). So we're celebrating and supporting in a few ways; on the app and on our social media platforms.

👉 Our lovely content curator Phoebe will be putting together some guides that highlight black creatives and lifestyles of black freelancers. You'll see a few of these spread across the month on the front page of our app.

👉 We'll be doing 'a day in the life' with our black team members on instagram, during which you'll be able to send in questions about creative careers and ask for advice on uni/jobs/general career things! All of this will be taking place on our Instagram every Monday of the month of October apart from the 17th.

👉 We'll also be highlighting as many opportunities as possible that are focused around black creatives during October! These can be found on our app, in our young people's newsletter and on our instagram.

Black History Month month is a super important reminder of the large community of black talent and culture that we have within the creative sector in the UK, and how much of an impact they have on creativity across the country. Lots of companies and individuals will be sharing content and helping to highlight the black creative community within the UK over the next month, so we're so pleased to be joining and helping to support companies who are providing more opportunities for the young BAME community.
