Attik founder James Sommerville will be among the speakers at #NoteToSelf, a new event for the creative industry taking place in Huddersfield this month.

Open to creative professionals and undergraduates, the event will also host talks from Richard Sharp, the co-founder of SHARP, Cahoona creative director Ben Holden and Huddersfield-based illustrator Jeffrey Bowman.

It has been set up by former Huddersfield students David Moore and Chris Roberts, who said they had been inspired by creative seminars and events while freelancing in Manchester.

Moore said: "When I was a student at Huddersfield University I would have loved the chance to find out what inspired & influenced someone like James Sommerville or Richard Sharp but we didn't have any events where we could go and listen to people in the creative industry."

#NoteToSelf Creative Consortium starts at 7pm on 19 May at the Media Centre in Huddersfield.
