North End Writers is a registered charity and seeks to promote, maintain, improve, and advance education by the encouragement of the literary arts and creative writing in all its forms, particularly amongst people resident in North Liverpool who are disadvantaged educationally or by reason of their gender, ethnicity, race, age, disability or social background.
Meet the team behind North End Writers.
We are currently reorganising with a new board of trustees and fundraising for the year ahead. We hope to establish a new writing group as soon as possible - based in the Anfield or Everton area - once funding is secured. In the meantime we can offer support through our drop-in service on Fridays and, for poets, through the work of the Walton Poetry study group which meets at Walton Library. We will also publicise any community writing opportunities available in North Liverpool. and refer members where possible to suitable groups and projects.
Check out developments on our Writing Groups page.
