Writing Stockport

Writing Stockport is a group of 16-18 year-olds who are passionate about creative writing.

Meeting weekly and led by professional writers from the Writing Squad, it is a chance for writers to develop whatever it they are writing now and, if they want to, take part in projects in the borough.  The latest of these was a zine written in response to food, launched at Arc in November 2024 you can download a digital copy here.

We still have a few places open in the workshop, so if you are interested write a short letter telling us about what you write and like reading, watching or listening to, and email that with up to five pages of writing, in whatever genre to steve@writingsquad.com. If you would prefer to send a url to work online instead, that’s fine too.

Please feel free to email any questions you may have.

Writing Stockport is a standalone project supported by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund as part of Stockport Town of Culture.
