The sessions cost £10 each when booked for all remaining sessions. Alternatively, you can choose to book a one-off taster session so that your young writer can try before they commit to the programme. 

You can choose to pay in one lump sum or pay by monthly recurring card payments. 

Please note, we encourage young people to join one group for the year, as getting to know their fellow group members is an important part of developing as a writer.

We are pleased to be able to offer free places to those who receive free school meals or pupil premium funding at school. You can see our bursary policy here. Please contact us with any queries and to request a bursary place.

The young people will need to bring:

A notebook or some paper
A pen or pencil to write with
A snack and a drink, if they want one
