For social good.

Welcome to Electric Medway. Our mission is to enable communities across Medway to get creative with new technology.

Our activities are often the first opportunity someone has to access digital creativity.

It is sadly no surprise that in 2024, UK creative industries remained underrepresented by those from a working class background. We know from lived experience that the barriers to entering are still systemic and complex. However, the opportunity in the Thames Production Corridor, for careers in TV, film, gaming and audio are huge.

Since 2023 we made a conscious decision to reach more people in neighbourhoods we had never worked in before - Gillingham, Intra and Luton. Improving access. Enabling creativity.

​As we look to the next three years, our work will commit to these places, and prioritise empowering young people to be digital storytellers.

​We will be launching more details about our priorities in our new Strategy 2025-28 soon.
