Sir Ken Robinson dedicated his life to championing creativity, imagination, and human potential.
He believed these were essential to human flourishing. And for decades, his work helped millions of people around the world feel seen.
This post is an invitation to be part of something that has never existed before.

Over the past year, the Sir Ken Robinson Archive has been carefully catalogued, preserved, and protected. The result of this lifelong accumulation of knowledge is now a collection recognised by archivists as being of International Significance.
The archive holds Sir Ken’s life’s work: his talks, notes, diaries, interviews, awards, photos, videos, memoirs, manuscripts, research, books, reflections and more, spanning from 1950 to 2020.
But as our work has progressed, something has become clear.
We have been missing voices.
Yours.
As part of this campaign, we are creating a permanent new addition to the Sir Ken Robinson Archive:
The Community Archive Box.
This box will sit alongside Sir Ken’s own work and will contain the names and short messages of the global community he inspired and championed. A collective of people who believe in a richer conception of human intelligence and creativity.
If Sir Ken’s work changed how you see creativity, learning, yourself, or what it means to be human then your name belongs in the Community Archive Box.
By making a donation of whatever amount feels meaningful to you via our JustGiving page, you will be able to submit your name and a short message, which will be placed permanently inside the Community Archive Box - a living legacy that will stand alongside Sir Ken’s work for generations to come.
Every contribution helps us to care for the Archive, sustain the Foundation’s work, and support the people and programmes keeping these ideas alive today.
If this invitation resonates, we encourage you to share it with someone who may wish to be part of it too.
Sir Ken often reminded us that we are all born with extraordinary capacities - and that our task, collectively, is to create the conditions in which they can flourish.
Your name.
Your words.
Side by side with his.
Thank you for being part of this community.
If you are reading this as a paid subscriber, we want to say something clearly and sincerely:
Your ongoing support of this Substack already plays a vital role in sustaining this work and helping these ideas continue to reach the world and we would be honoured to include you in the Community Archive Box.
