In partnership with Channel 4, New Writing North’s Script Hubs provide peer support and networking to writers across the North looking to take their career in TV forward.
Their next application window is open to all writers living in Cumbria and members of the global majority across the North of England.
Over a five-month period, ten writers in each Script Hub collaborate on a series of peer group sessions and professional development workshops. Each group is led by an experienced facilitator writer, with the workshops featuring guest writers, producers, and other broadcast professionals.
Places are selected via application. Applicants should have some experience writing scripts or be practising in another form, such as fiction or poetry, but do not need to have a commission.
Once the facilitated sessions and workshops are complete, the aim is that the groups will continue to meet as self-directed peer groups, maintaining a continuing relationship with New Writing North.

Deadline: 9 September 2025
