Working in the Community

The Windows Project runs workshops each year for youth clubs, day care centres, writers groups and those in care or custody. They can range from the simple promotion of writing, through game-based approaches to poetry, script and story-writing or autobiography to criticism and advice for more experienced writers.

These workshops include playwriting and storytelling with under-10s; Saturday clubs in libraries; an alternative to snooker for teenagers in youth clubs; specialist advice sessions for the public and writers' groups, and year-round opportunities for both young and adult writers with disabilities or learning difficulties to develop their potential.
