The Writing Squad is a group of motivated writers aged between 16-21 based in the north of England and New Writing North has teamed up with them to bring this inspiring writing opportunity to writers in the North East and North West.
The Squad exists to help young people develop their writing talent in whatever context is most appropriate for them. Previous graduates have built careers as poets, prose writers, playwrights, screenwriters, performers and lyricists. To see what current Squad members think about the programme see http://vimeo.com/45568009.
