We are developing the following:

In prisons and women’s centres

Creative writing programmes, workshops and writers’ circles to support system-affected women and non-binary people write what they need to write - their stories, their experiences, their ideas and expertise, their hopes and dreams.

In the community

Creative writing workshops, writers’ circles and mentoring for system-affected women and non-binary people who are in “the community”, and looking to continue and grow their writing practice, and potentially publish their work.

Resources

Providing an up-to-date online collection of:

  • the latest research around arts and creative writing in women’s prisons

  • books and literature by women and non-binary people in prison and beyond

  • opportunities for system-affected writers - funding, residencies, writers’ groups etc.
