“I’m thrilled that Literature Works are supporting Mothership Writers through the Annual Fund. Their contribution has helped facilitate the addition of a third group to our programme of workshops, with the focus on encouraging diverse participation and engaging mums from under-represented communities. Mothership Writers was launched in Bristol in April, and is supported using public funding through by the National Lottery through Arts Council England; it’s a free year-long programme of creative writing workshops for new mothers, with a philosophy of creativity, community, and well-being. The response to the project has been fantastic, and we have fifty-four Mothership Writers – and their offspring – already onboard, with a further six places made available to mums from under-represented communities.”
