The idea behind IPSE’s Creative package is to help support freelancers and remove lots of the administrative burden that comes with being self employed, allowing more time for you to actually be creative. It also has benefits which includes discounted access to Adobe Creative Cloud and free access to workspaces.

To enter simply take a photo or selfie of the boring admin that stops you from from being creative, follow @teamipse on Twitter or teamipse on Instagram, and post the picture using the hashtag #BeFreeToCreate.
You have until 24 August 2016 to enter the #befreetocreate competition, but if you can’t wait that long, you can get 20% off IPSE membership at out TechSPARK Summer Social.
