Julie Kavanagh
I've spent over 27 years in the creative industries, from choreography, music and artist development to commercial television, fashion, gaming, sports, live entertainment and major events.
Bringing people together, developing talent and turning ambitious ideas into reality has always been my thing. Then, without warning, life took an unexpected turn. I was forced to step away from the career I loved when I realised that my two adopted children, both with complex additional needs, were not going to be offered the most basic of basics: a school place. Something I sadly discovered is far too common among Care Experienced children
So I did what I'd always done professionally. I built a team. Only this time, instead of choreographers, performers and production crews, I brought together a colossal team of educators, therapists, medical specialists, social workers and professionals across multiple agencies. I had to find the right people, secure funding, coordinate services and challenge decisions at the highest levels to build an entire support system around my family when the usual systems simply weren't working.
It was a rather brutal lesson in leadership, negotiation and resilience. But it also reminded me that the skills I'd spent years developing were just as valuable outside the creative industry.
Now, with my children growing up, I'm coming full circle, bringing everything I've learnt back into the industry I love.
Life in Motion is my next chapter. And I've got plenty of ideas.
Life In Motion Inclusion Commitment
My commitment to inclusion comes from lived experience, not a corporate policy. As an adoptive parent I've spent years challenging systems and fighting for opportunities that others take for granted.
Care Experienced young people are among the most marginalised, excluded and forgotten in our society. I've seen firsthand how much talent and potential gets overlooked simply because someone doesn't fit the expected mould and can't read well enough to produce a polished CV.
The creative industries talk a great deal about inclusion, but we need to challenge what that actually looks like. An inclusion policy isn't enough, and neither is a breakout sensory room with a sad-looking bubble light and an offer of a mindfulness colouring-in book. Real inclusion starts much earlier, with who's invited in, represented, gets heard and who gets the opportunity to gain a seat at the table.
Life in Motion is a commercial business with big creative ambitions. But as we grow, I have no intention of pulling up the drawbridge behind me. I want my team at Life In Motion to challenge, nurture and have the bloody balls to care.
After all, looking over your shoulder as you grow to see who's missing costs nothing.
