Do you like creative writing? Are you aged between 11-18?

Then you need to sign up to Lighthouse Young Writers.

As a Lighthouse Young Writer, you will get the chance to attend workshops led by professional writers, attend Lighthouse performances for free and see your work published online, in print, and performed on a stage before a live audience.

Workshops run on Saturday mornings on a weekly basis during term times and offer a safe, supportive environment, encouraging young writers to share work and to give and receive feedback in a respectful way that empowers voices in the workshop community.

We run two workshops, for 11-14 year olds and 15 -18 year olds. These are a great opportunity to meet like-minded people and a lot of fun.
