The Writing Lives programme
offers weekly creative writing and storytelling workshops to a number of groups
across Broughton and Charlestown, Salford. Workshops cover a broad range of
narrative based activities: writing poetry and short stories, book making, text
art, spoken word and storytelling.
The groups are open to anyone
interested in sharing stories, writing them down, learning new skills and
meeting new people.
Over the past few years, Writing
Lives has delivered various initiatives in partnership with local
communities. These include publishing an anthology, creating a blog, visits to
museums and art galleries, storytelling events and establishing Broughton
Poetry Day.
Set up in 2007, the project is
managed by the University of Salford in partnership with The Broughton Trust
and Women Working Together. Workshops are led by professional writers and
artists experienced in facilitating creative community projects. Writing
Lives aims to support participants by offering an alternative route into
education/training, building confidence and self-esteem, strengthening
community relationships and empowering individuals to find their own voice
through their passion for the written word.
