The Writing Squad is recruiting writers aged between 16 and 22 who live, work or study in the North of England for their next two year programme.
They welcome writers of any formats – from poetry and prose, through film, stage and radio scripts, to games and graphic novels. Being part of the Squad is FREE and they work around your life so you can study, work or travel at the same time.
The Squad will provide you with:
- one to one support on whatever you are writing
- workshops led by professional writers
- opportunities to work on projects
- a supportive community of writers and artists
- professional development, advice and support
You can find out more about our programme here. You can also meet some of the writers from previous Squads, take at look at all the places they have been published, produced and broadcast, and where they work.
Details on how to apply are on the website
Deadline: Midnight on Monday March 31st 2025
