Introducing Chelsea focus month

Via the X of Morley campaign, we like to shine a light on a particular area of our work…in December 2022, the spotlight moves to the Chelsea Centre for Creative Industries.

In the run-up to the end of term, we’ll be looking at what Morley has to offer students at our Hortensia and Carlyle Buildings, located on Hortensia Road just minutes walk from Fulham Broadway station.

What’s on offer?

The Chelsea Centre for Creative Industries is a unique space that supports creative minds in finding a voice of their own.

We’re a specialist centre dedicated to the development of Arts, Design, Media and Technology practice, as well as supporting our English, Maths and ESOL students.

We deliver education programmes that meet the needs of both school/college leavers and adults seeking qualifications or a creative experience.

Our team

The Chelsea Centre is staffed by a dedicated and experienced team of creative educators, and we’ll be profiling some of them over the coming month.

The Centre is led by Centre Principal Matias Shortcook, who you can read about here. To find out more about Matias’s vision for Chelsea and what’s coming up in the coming weeks and months, listen to an interview below:
