FRIENDS of SWanwick
​The ‘Friends of Swanwick’ fund, relies on donations and grant money, to provide these subsidised opportunites for successful applicants who would otherwise not be able to attend the Summer School.
Please donate to this worthy cause and enable more writers to access the School to enhance their creativity, and nurture their health and well-being among fellow writers within the Swanwick Writers' Summer School community.

TOPWRITE
scheme
Our long-running TopWrite access scheme is aimed at aspiring young writers aged 18-30, enabling them to attend the School for a fraction of the total cost of a full price ticket.
The application process is open to all young writers who are committed to writing and are eager for an opportunity to be introduced to what writing as a career might actually be like.
