Stratford Literary Festival
We run day-long creative writing workshops, tutored by published children’s authors, teaching prisoners how to write bedtime stories for their children in order for them to maintain contact with their families and help lessen the trauma of parental absence for a child. The stories are then printed and given to the children or recorded via Storybook Dads initiative. We have Arts Council support for this work and have been featured in Woman’s Hour and in the Guardian.
