December Project Celebrations


George Garrett Travelling Man with

St Vincent Primary School

On 8th December we started the day with a 'Hunger March' recreated by St Vincent Primary School to celebrate their George Garrett - Travelling Man publication. Our Garretteers have been delivering writing workshops with years 4,5 and 6 since September which culminated in a book launch at the Women's Organisation Building. George Garrett (Actor, Paul Duckworth) even made an appearance to congratulate the pupils! You can read the publication here




What's Your Story? with Advance PSS

& Brothers of Charity 

Later that day, the WoW team went to Thingwall for the Brothers of Charity & Advance PSS What's Your Story? celebration event. Curtis Watt led a fantastic showcase performance with the group featuring poetry, movement and music.




What's Your Story? Stroke Association 

On Friday 11th, we travelled to Manchester CityLabs to watch a performance from our What's Your Story? Stroke Association group who had been working with Chris Mellor to produce creative writing from their life experiences. The group read from their publications and told stories. A very moving event.
