They are proud to be a charity and an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation.
New Writing North believes that writing talent is everywhere, but that opportunities are not. They work hard to both identify talent and create fantastic career-changing opportunities for people from across society.
They develop programmes and activities that inspire people to engage with creative writing and reading, whether this is to develop their skills and professional ambitions or for pleasure and wellbeing.
They help excellent writing find local, regional, national, and international audiences.
