@brixtonbard@brixtonbard totally agree I work in a library and money is very tight and imagine how many children could be helped in communities to support and inspire them to write
Harper Collins paid £2 million for Boris Johnson's memoirs. Booksellers are left with piles and piles of unsold books. When are they going to learn to invest in real writing talent rather than throwing ridiculous amounts of cash on politicians and celebrities?
This week the library @HMPSwinfenHall@StaffsPLS welcomed back @Literacy_Trust with @AniefiokEkp to deliver another fantastic creative writing session as part of the new chapters project. Thank you for visiting us. We look forward to carrying on working with @Literacy_Trust

It was great to return to HMPYOI Swinfen Hall with #NewChapters last Thursday! @eastsidemoses ran a fantastic creative writing workshop focusing on how to write about place. The group discussed two examples and then had a go themselves, with some amazing writing produced.

The New Chapters Anthology 2022 is here and it looks 🔥! This book is filled with extraordinary writing from our #NewChapters participants in prisons, youth offenders institutions, and other secure settings. It's an inspiring testament to the power of creative writing!
@DrAmirKhanGP First without my dad and my mother in law. Its so hard. Thinking of everyone who has lost someone and I feel like Christmas won't be the same again.
After visiting a friend today
This is a tweet in recognition of those who will be spending Christmas for the first, tenth or twentieth time without a loved one
Special thoughts with you
💔❤️
An amazing morning in the library @StaffsPLS@HMPSwinfenHall with @Shannon_Trust celebrating our fantastic group of shannon trust mentors and mentees. You have worked so hard over the last 10 months it was lovely to see you all being celebrated for all your hard work.
Wow! What an extraordinary final #NewChapters creative writing workshop of the year @HMPSwinfenHall! The 16 men @JMThras' workshop produced some ridiculously good writing about environments that shape us & mental health! Thank you to Jamie and @PrisonRadioUK for recording it all!
She rang you momday to report it was told " it was fixed in January " my dad recently died and mum is now on her own and has mobility issues. I don't think it's acceptable for her to be living in a damp leaky house not after being a good tenant for 52'years
@TamworthCouncil this is a last resort as my 77 year old mum has reported this on numerous occasions. I'm 2020 due to a leaky roof the bedroom ceiling came in she was told it was "fixed" but has been leaking ever since. Now leaking into her newly decorated bedroom and kitchen.
