The London Writers Awards is our highly regarded annual development scheme for talented writers from communities and backgrounds currently under-represented in publishing. The programme aims to support writers to complete their manuscripts and to get agented. The 2021 London Writers Awards will run from January to October and will, initially, take place online.

We are seeking a UK-based professionally qualified counselling or psychology practitioner (BACP, RCD, HCPC, NMC, UKCP or BPC registered) with experience of delivering workshops or talks to groups in person or online, and, ideally, who is a writer or artist or has experience of working in the creative industries.

The fee for the work is: £4,000 inclusive and offered on a freelance basis. Please note that this contract is for UK based practitioners only.

We particularly welcome and encourage applications from practitioners with lived experience and/ or an understanding of the issues most affecting the communities we work with and for. All reasonable adjustments will be made for shortlisted candidates.
