This is a temporary holding page for Rochdale Writes.
Rochdale Writes will launch as a Community Interest Company in Spring 2026.
Our Mission is to help communities, organisations and individuals to experience the benefits of creative writing through creating, reading, listening and performing.
The Rochdale Writes CIC will provide benefits to local communities, through creative writing activities, events and projects for people of all ages and abilities, including those who may not currently have access to creative writing opportunities. We will seek to support existing and new community groups, community centres, libraries, schools.
A range of activities will be delivered in person and using online/remote facilities (where for example it is difficult for people to travel or access venues). Activities include:
Creative writing workshops and projects, poetry, fiction, place based writing, nature writing, journalling, storytelling, performance and sharing.
