At The Word Association we bring free writing workshops and opportunities in publishing and performance to underrepresented groups. Our passion is celebrating the stories of marginalised communities and making sure your voices get heard.
We publish anthologies of our workshop participants’ work and distribute them for free at Pride events, literature festivals and throughout Worcestershire Libraries for National Poetry Day, National Coming Out Day and World Mental Health Day.
