Our Aims & Values

Blick exists to support and inspire creatives in Northern Ireland through affordable workspaces, business services and shared learning.

Our Aims
  • To provide working spaces for creatives outside the home to encourage productivity, creativity, connection and better work/life balance.
  • To provide affordable workspace for creatives in beautiful buildings with character in Belfast.
  • To offer fully serviced workspace without commitment that takes the hassle and risk out of renting premises and allows our resident creatives to concentrate on their creative practices.
  • To bring together creatives to encourage community, connection, collaboration and peer learning within our workspace and events and activities.
  • To provide meaningful support for creatives in Belfast to inspire and support them to follow their dreams, gain inspiration and motivation and meet and connect with other like-minded creatives.
  • To remain a financially sustainable and independent organisation, able to provide long-term support and facilities and adapt quickly and flexibly to the needs of creatives.

Really looking forward to our next creative talk this Wednesday evening with the amazing Juliette founder of Le Contour contemporary candle company!

About Juliette:
“I began my journey in lockdown of 2020 where, like many of us, I experienced first-hand the importance of being surrounded by things that enrich and encourage us in our day to day lives – namely in our home. This is what prompted the creation of my very first collection, designed to empower women and inclusively celebrate the female form. An ethos I am proud to align my brand to.”
In this talk, Juliette will share her creative story, including the highs and lows and some of the lessons she has learned along the way!
You can find out more about Juliette on her website lecontour.co.uk and follow her on on Instagram at @lecontourcandles
