Full Programme
"The programme was extensive and full of treasures."
Swanwick is famous for its eye-catching programme of speakers, courses, workshops, panels, talks and more. Every year the School’s impressive reputation attracts top-level speakers and tutors from a wide range of writing genres. With something different to choose from every day, you can put together your own bespoke programme. You don't need to sign up in advance for courses or workshops - you can choose what inspires you on the day.
Every Delegate who has booked will receive a printed copy of the Brochure by post in July. Please don't forget to bring it with you in August - a replacement copy will cost you!
If you won't be at home in July or live abroad and would prefer to collect your Brochure on arrival, please email Ingrid on secretary@swanwickwritersschool.org.uk to arrange that.
