What are we?

We are a new creative writing initiative based in Prestwich. We offer creative writing sessions for 7-18 year olds driven by creativity and imagination.

We want to inspire and help future writers to have a chance to create something unique without the stress of it being for an assessment or exam. This is all about fun!

All sessions are run by published writers and professional educators (enhanced DBS).

Where is it?

All sessions will be held in Prestwich Library.

When is it?

11th - 14th April 2023. It’s in that special bit of the Easter holidays when everyone is bored.

We will have 7-12 year old groups every morning from 11th-14th April each with a different theme.

10.00am - 12.00pm

There will also be afternoon sessions on the 11th and 14th (on the 12th and 13th we are trailing some sessions for older writers ages 12-18 - if you are 12 you are welcome to come to both!)

1.00pm - 3.00pm.

You can sign up for single sessions, whole days or the whole week!

Sessions are £5 each and we have a number of free places for families on low/no income.

SAVE 20% by signing up for a full week pass that is valid for all sessions (no other ticket purchase necessary).
