"Spark is a project that cares deeply about society and in making it better. For me, what makes Spark much more interesting than competitors is in its development of a new financial model that all stakeholders benefit from, most notably our start-up businesses.”
"We want to support individuals bring their ideas to life by showing the path and equipping them with the necessary skills. We believe creating a buzzing and provocative destination helps create that success."
"It’s important to me to be a part of a community driven space, with focus on local, independent business. Accessible to all, Spark is a great place to meet for a diverse range of food, host an event, or even benefit from the opportunity to run your own business from art spaces to retail and food units."
“Spark is independent, accessible for all ages and walks of life, exists for local people and local produce and is charitable and for the community. Ultimately, it is unique and one of a kind."
"What Spark means to me is community. Sharing and having the same attitudes and interests in Spark is what we all have in common and I really love that we all have a common goal, helping out our community."
"Spark is an example of everything good about York. It’s the heart of a creative community, with traders looking to do something different and provide an experience that is unique to Spark. This is the place to experience York and its incredible community."
"Spark is a hub in York's creative and independent community, where new ideas and businesses have the freedom to flourish in an open and accessible environment. A place of happening."
