CreativeMornings/Edinburgh Updates 📢✨

Hi morning people,
We’re coming to you with some updates about your Edinburgh chapter:

A huge thank you

At our Febraury event, Sophie let us know that she’s stepping down as host. Here's a message from her:

“As I move onto the pastry-eating side of CreativeMornings, I’ve been reflecting on the incredible support that made my time as host possible. CreativeMornings truly takes a village, and I’ve been so lucky to work with the best one.

A massive thanks to the values-aligned partners who’ve believed in the vision and supported us - Machina, Company Bakery, Broughton Street Flowers, and our many host venues. To the incredible speakers who have been brave, generous and genuinely inspirational, and to the incred volunteer team who have brought every event to life with so much fun and sparkle: I couldn't have dreamt of a better crew.

Most of all, thank you to everyone who has come along! Your energy is what makes this community so special. I’m leaving you in the very capable hands of Andy, who’s been a dream to work with - and I can’t wait to see you all from the other side of the coffee queue!”

Sophie Jones, outgoing Edinburgh host


We couldn’t have done the events without her and she was a creative powerhouse getting them started again, so it’s a great big thank you from the volunteer team too!

I’m Andy 👋 I’ll be leading our team now and we can’t wait to get back to putting on events for you.

I’ve been going to CreativeMornings/Edinburgh events for 10 years now. They’re such a great source of inspiration for me and are an incredible way to start the day. It’s going to be an absolute pleasure and I’m looking forward to meeting you all properly at one of our events this year.
