Louth Craftmark - 2 Year Programme

If you would like to find a new career or to add to your current skills and abilities and develop your artistic and creative side, maybe you should consider craft as a source of employment. The Louth Craftmark programme could help you to do this.

The aim of Louth Craftmark is to provide a variety of services, facilities and grant aid to help people launch, develop, sustain and practice craft business. In particular we promote entrepreneurship through enterprise employment and self-employment, largely amongst women, young people and the long-term unemployed.
