Little Green Pig

We believe that writing can positively change lives. Our vision is that all children and young people in Sussex have space and time to write for pleasure and purpose, and the opportunity to share their stories. We enable children and young people to experiment with writing in all its forms, and to share their work with a wide audience. We prioritise working with children and young people who live or go to school in areas of highest deprivation, or who face challenging circumstances. From anthologies to soap operas, radio shows to films, our projects challenge perceptions of what writing can be and deliver serious outcomes: improved self-confidence, literacy and communication skills. We believe in the right to write creatively. Creativity and fun are at the heart of what we do. In collaboration with volunteers, writers, artists, schools, families and partner organisations, we respond to children’s needs and ideas to provide fun, innovative and excellent learning experiences.
