This year, our little organisation turns the big 3 0! We’re taking the opportunity to reflect on the brilliant writers, team members, partners, participants, projects and programmes that have formed part of our story so far, and we’d love to hear from you.
Do you have memories of taking part in Spread the Word activities from years, even decades ago? Are there people or projects that have stayed in your mind? Has Spread the Word had an impact on where you are today?
We’ve created a short form as a resting place for your memories. With your permission, we’d love to share these to celebrate the 30 years we’ve worked so far and look ahead to what comes next. We want to celebrate the incredible people who founded Spread the Word and who have formed a part of it’s mission: to create an equitable publishing industry and opportunities for all talented writers.
30 years of impactful work suporting writers and telling the stories that need to be heard gives us a strong foundation on which to build our ambitions for the future. Sharing your memories will help us to tell our story and articulate our imapct. Which in turn will help us to reach funders and secure the organisation’s future.
Thank you for being a part of our journey. We hope you’ll come along for the next chapter.
Share your memories here: Spread the Word at 30
This opportunity will close on Monday 8 September 2025. If you have any questions about the campaign, please get in touch with Alice Sewell, our interim Head of Communications, via [email protected].
