As someone who works with #freelancers in museums and heritage, I found this such a useful guide from @FreelanceScots @CreativeScots. And beautifully illustrated!

At the park, one kid playing football, one drawing on a bench, and I’m reading the very useful THE ILLUSTRATED FREELANCER’S GUIDE by @HeatherParryUK and @MariaStoian @FreelanceScots

If only I had an ice lolly it would be perfect.
