About

New Writing North is a development agency for creative writing and creative reading based in the north east of England. We specialise in the development of talent and act as a dynamic broker between writers, agents and producers across the creative industries. As a promoter of new writing we work to engage people with creative reading, with live literary experiences and with new plays, films and digital work. Our commitment to raising the aspirations and developing the creativity of young people and communities is realised through the production of creative projects which seek to engage new audiences and to delight and surprise those who already participate. New Writing North is a registered charity number 1062729 and a limited company incorporated in England and Wales under no: 3166037. We are proud to be a Regularly Funded Organisation of Arts Council England.
