#FreeMoveCreate is a collaborative campaign to protect freedom of movement for everyone working in the creative industries. The campaign will:

• inform allies, including industry, of the importance of free movement to individuals working in the creative industries
• lobby Government and Parliament about the importance of freedom of movement
• arm creators and individuals working in the creative industries with the facts and figures needed to make the case
• assist creators and individuals working in the creative industries in supporting sister campaigns and engaging with decision makers

Deborah Annetts, Chief Executive of the Incorporated Society of Musicians and co-founder of #FreeMoveCreate said:

"Our surveys conducted just after the results of the EU referendum, along with discussion with our members, uncovered the number one priority for working musicians: freedom of movement across all European countries. Results showed that close on 60% of musicians placed maintaining freedom of movement as their number one priority. Our members travel to Europe upwards of 26 times a year, and the average tour length is seven days but some members are there for 60 days at a time. Our research shows that visas are not the solution and can cause even more problems."
