The evaluation will particularly focus on Gateshead Young Writers. This is a brand new programme funded by the Kavli Trust and taking place over two years.
Professional writers and artists will work with groups of young people, especially those from backgrounds which are under-represented in arts and culture. They will support them to develop their own creative writing and provide them with progression routes, so that they can continue their own personal cultural journey, as creators and/or consumers of culture.
The approach builds on our successful Young Writers City programmes in Newcastle and Sunderland and will involve not only a key secondary school but also feeder primary schools and community groups.
Fee: £8,000 per year for 2 years
