Our work with young people

The work of Readers & Writers has traditionally been to send writers in to schools. However, with more and more of this kind of work being done by other brilliant organisations - for example, First Story - we are now focusing the efforts of our education department on prisons and new communities.

However, we very much want to stay in touch with schools work, and are currently planning a new project that will involve English PEN and the citizenship curriculum. At the moment, this is at development stage, but if you are interested in this - or have an expertise in the field - please contact the Readers & Writers Programme Manager, Philip Cowell, on philip@englishpen.org.
