Partnerships

Work with partner groups is at the core of Arvon's work. Every year, Arvon works with at least 15 organisations, ranging from charities, arts organisations, socially disadvantaged groups and community groups to higher educational institutions and businesses.

With these groups we create bespoke Arvon writing courses to match the interests and skills of the writers. These are special courses designed with our partners. They are some of the most socially and artistically progressive work we do.

Read about what happened on a recent partnership week with the winners of the 2009 Foyle Young Poets Award.

Arvon also has an ongoing partnership with The Jerwood Charitable Foundation. This unique programme has offered nine aspiring writers the opportunity to participate in a year-long mentoring scheme. Find out more.

Other recent partnerships have taken place with the following groups: Kali Theatre, The Princess Royal Carers Trust, Kids Company, Medical Foundation for the Care of Victims of Torture, Foyle Young Poets, Woman and Home magazine, The Royal Court International Playwrights, Royal Holloway MA in Creative Writing, Romany Young People’s Theatre, Sable Magazine, English Pen, and Spread the Word.
