Writer-in-Residence at Seaton Delaval Hall
Deadline: Fri 27 Aug 2021
The National Trust in partnership with New Writing North and Northumbria University is seeking a Writer-in-Residence at Seaton Delaval Hall which is located near Seaton Sluice in Northumberland. Open to writers based in North East England working in prose, poetry, creative non-fiction and script.

The writer will research and develop original work inspired by both the site and the Delaval family history; create and run a course for aspiring or emerging writers at the hall; and develop writing workshops for the local community based on the same material.

The residency will take place over 6 months from September 2021 – March 2022 and will culminate in a public event to share the work created through the programme.

Fee: £5250 or 30 days at £175 per day. There is also a budget of £3250 to cover dissemination, event costs, the course and workshops.

Please note: Although space can be made available in Seaton Delaval Hall while the writer is visiting, there is limited provision for a permanent base for them during the residency .

The residency will be managed by New Writing North.
